ILLiad Electronic Delivery Information |
ILLiad offers the convenience of having articles delivered to you via Electronic Delivery without ever going to the library. Electronic delivery makes it possible for you to retrieve your articles online in PDF format (Adobe's Portable Document Format).
| How do I know if my computer can receive electronic articles? |
You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader installed and configured to work with your Web browser in order to view, download, and print these articles. Acrobat Reader is installed on all campus computers as part of the standard software loadset, but you may need to install it on your own computer. Acrobat Reader is available without charge from Adobe Systems, Inc. Click the "Get Acrobat Reader" button to go directly to the download page.
| How do I get my articles when they arrive? |
Logon to ILLiad at http://illiad.csumb.edu/illiad/logon.html. On the main menu, choose "Electronic Delivery." This will give you a list of all items that you have waiting to view or download.
| How do I know which requests will be electronically delivered and which ones will not? |
ILLiad sends you an e-mail notification for each item received. That e-mail will include information about the delivery method. Electronic delivery is the default for journal articles you have requested.
| What if I have questions about electronic delivery? |
You can e-mail questions to library_document_delivery@csumb.edu or call us at 582-3870.
