You may request a digital copy of an article or book chapter from any materials found in the University Library System by using Get It.

Pitt Libraries partner with multiple institutions locally, nationally, and internationally through Resource Sharing to bring resources to you! A one-time user registration is required before using the form. You will not need to re-enter personal information every time you make a request.

  1. If you find a resource in PittCat that is not available to borrow, you can still place a request for it by following the link to request a scan or the physical item. Note: You must be logged into PittCat to initiate the request.
  2. If you cannot find your desired resource in PittCat, you can still request it directly through the Resource Sharing Form.

If you ever need help placing a request, please contact ResourceSharing@library.pitt.edu.
