(document delivery & alerting service)Gateway access to IngentaConnect will be discontinued on Aug. 1, 2008.
Users will continue to be able to search Ingenta and purchase materials. However, the Library will no longer subsidize Ingenta document delivery.
Interlibrary loan for graduate students and faculty will continue to be subsidized by the Library. If you wish to order articles found in Ingenta, please request the materials through ILLiad, the interlibrary loan system. If you need materials within 48 hours or you require high-quality copies, please indicate your special request in the "Where did you find this item cited?" section of the interlibrary loan form. For more information about interlibrary loan and document delivery services, please contact Karen Jung, Head of Access Services.
For InTouch (Reveal) users that have set up the alerts in Ingenta, many of our current databases and electronic journals have similar email alerting services. For example, RSS feeds and email alerts are available through the databases accessible through Ebsco by setting up a My EbSCOhost account. For more information about email alerting services or for assistance with setting up alerts, please contact Ask A Librarian.

The granting of these extended privileges will be made at the discretion of the Library, and unauthorized expenditures over the semester limits will be billed to the user.
