Document Delivery
Journal articles can be difficult to find in rural areas. Blue
Ridge AHEC provides document delivery for journal articles.
If you are
an active preceptor currently accepting students there will
be no or very little
cost for document delivery. If the document delivery fee is
large, we may have to pass this cost to the preceptor. If
this occurs
you will
be contacted before the document is ordered. If you are NOT
an active preceptor currently accepting students there maybe
a charge
for
requested documents.
Interlibrary Loan
Books, Videotapes, etc. may be available through interlibrary
loan.
