You will be brought to page called "What would you like to do today?". Select the "Request a scan from this document (e.g. chapter)" link.

Sign into your Sofia "My Account".

You will be brought to the "Article/Chapter" form in your "My Account". The form will autofill certain information about the article. Review all the fields to ensure the information is correct.

Request type "COPY" will send you a PDF of the article.

At the bottom of the form, you will see an "additional information" section. You can add in any other information pertaining to the request.
