Library Express Delivery Service (LEDS)

This service delivers library materials for current FSU faculty members, graduate students, and staff with registered departmental office pickup and drop off locations. Deliveries are made during regular business hours, Monday - Friday and most available items are delivered to department offices within 48 hours. Scanned articles and book chapters are delivered by FSU email.

You can also request that your books be picked up from your department office and returned to the library. If you’re new to LEDS, please fill out the registration form before placing your first request!

To order physical items to be delivered to your departmental office location please use the library search (OneSearch) to find the item. You will need to login with your FSU credentials, then you can use the “Get it” request link to place your order. Just pick “Library Express Delivery Service - Office pickup location” under the pickup location. If this does not show up in your drop down menu it means you need to register (or re-register) for the service.

If you want to order an article request or chapter scan you can do so directly in the catalog. If the item has the link to “digitization request” you can just fill it in and submit it. If it does not have that link, you can still request an article or chapter scan by placing a “get it” request for the item and choosing Library Express Delivery Service (office delivery) as the pick up location and putting the article title and pages or the chapters you need in the “special instructions” field.

When you place the request this way we will pull the book, it will be checked out to you temporarily (you may get a delivery notice but just ignore it), and scan the chapter or article. The scan will be a PDF and be sent to your FSU email address. When the scan is completed the item will be discharged off your account and re-shelved.
