If the journal is only available in print, record the location and call number. Print journals cannot be borrowed but you can make a copy (7 cents per page). Use UBC Document Delivery if the journal is available at another campus (e.g. hospital libraries or UBC-O). Use CISTI Orders or Interlibrary Loan if the journal is not available at UBC.
