The CLA licence allows us to digitise one chapter from a book and one article from a journal issue, or 5% from a book. You will receive one of the messages below if your request exceeds this limit (this also take into account previous requests from the same book for the same course).
For example:

Our CLA licence allows us to scan extracts from many but not all books and journals. If the resource cannot be scanned, we can try to obtain permission direct from the publisher (for which there may be a fee), but if we are not able to then we will be unable to make a digitised scan of the reading available.
You will receive the message below.
