Q. What happens to my submitted Electronic Key Text (EKT) requests?

On receiving your request it will be:

• Checked to confirm it is covered by the Copyright Licensing Agency Higher Education Licence (PDF, 407KB). We will inform you if it is not.
• Checked whether the University owns (or subscribes to) a copy or can source a copyright cleared copy.

Once requests have been verified and scanned, the files are stored in the CLA Digital Content Store. This ensures the material is protected using secure authentication (password protected).

The scanned chapter or article can be added to the module reading list (if requested) or, if you prefer, you will be emailed the secure link to make it available in Canvas or add to your reading list yourself. Using the secure link permitted users will be able to access the texts both on and off campus.
