DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICE

When you see a document or map cited in the GeoRef database you can simply order a copy from the GeoRef Document Delivery Service (GeoRef DDS). We provide copies of earth-science documents available in the U.S. Geological Survey Library in Reston, VA, the Library of Congress, the AGI Library, and through an international network of exchange partners including organizations in Germany, China, and the Russian Federation.

The GeoRef DDS also provides copies of earth-science theses and dissertations. These requests are filled through ProQuest / UMI (University Microfilms, Inc.) and through the degree-granting institutions involved.

TYPES OF SERVICE AVAILABLE

Regular Service -- Documents will be shipped within 5-7 business days via first-class mail. For thesis and dissertation orders allow for a longer delivery time of approximately 4-8 weeks.

Rush Service -- Documents will be shipped within 24 hours via Federal Express. If the request cannot be filled within 24 hours, you will be notified and rush charges will be dropped.

Fax Service -- Customers may request regular, next-day or AM fax orders. AM fax orders are available only in the U.S. and must be received by 9:00 AM EST. In addition to fax fees, rush charges apply to next-day and AM fax service and regular order fees apply to regular fax service.
