As technology evolves, the team鈥檚 services have become even more vital to 成人VR视频 users. In 2014-15, the team handled an all-time record 35,000 requests, covering a broad range of disciplines, formats, languages and eras. In May 2014, it instituted a new service聽for 成人VR视频聽users to request聽scans of聽journal articles and book chapters from 成人VR视频鈥檚 collections聽to be聽sent to them via email.

鈥淭he team is extremely cognizant that their work is essential to the success of our scholars, saves their time and therefore provides a competitive advantage.
