Add your PDF file to Leganto following the instructions for adding a print book chapter (see link at the bottom of this page), but follow the steps below to include a note to Library staff to make this request:
- Once you have added your citation and attached the file, click save and close
- Navigate to the citation in your reading list and click on the title to open the details screen (this is also how you will complete the necessary Copyright declaration steps).
- In the right hand panel, click the Notes to/from Library tab and write your comment.
- Click Submit Comment
