Cambridge libraries are also working collaboratively to provide a Scan and Deliver service. Material for personal use and research should be requested via the University Library's service (available here: https://www.lib.cam.ac.uk/using-library/zero-contact-services/scan-deliver). Material which is being scanned and uploaded to Moodle should be requested via the Seeley email address (seeley@hist.cam.ac.uk); staff will send a form which will need to be filled in with all the relevant scanning information. 

Classes: The Seeley team are currently offering classes on using idiscover and literature searching for dissertations. You can book these online classes via the link below:
