Employees at Umeå University can order digitisation free of charge. At the end of the ordering process the system recognizes that the cost is to be deleted. Your UmU mail address must be used when ordering for this to work.
Price
The price depends on the size of the book (number of pages). The basic fee is SEK 150 + SEK 1.50/page, as follows:
A book comprising 100 pages is SEK 300
A book comprising 300 pages is SEK 600
The price is automatically calculated in the order form but it might be changed after the manual examination of the book.
Manual examination
A manual examination of the book is always carried out. This may result in a decision not to digitise the book, e.g. on account of the physical condition of the item. The price may also change if it is revealed that the given price was based on incomplete data in the library catalogue.
Delivery
On request the book will be scanned and made available in platform independent PDF format.
Delivery time is estimated at about 10-15 business days. After that a message will be sent out saying that the book is ready to be paid and delivered.
