If you need a standard the library does not have, please submit your request via interlibrary loan. Due to the cost, most requests will be referred to the engineering librarians for approval, so you are welcome to contact us first.
We evaluate requests on a case-by-case basis with the following considerations:
- We will try to honor requests for undergraduate senior design projects.
- Students and others doing independent research on behalf of external companies should check with those companies about acquiring standards.
- If the standard is for course instruction, we can purchase print copies to place on reserves. If ISO or IEC standards are needed, faculty can request access to specific standards through ANSI's University Outreach Program.
- We encourage researchers to use grant funding to acquire standards for their labs before they request standards from the library
