Request Purchase of a Book, DVD, or Other Material:

Requests for new books, and other materials are welcome throughout the fiscal year.

Send requests to Ann Viera via email (annviera at utk.edu), Campus Mail (A-113 VTH/Pendergrass Library) or drop them by the library or stop me in the hallway.

Every book in English on veterinary medicine is automatically added to the collection, usually very soon after publication, so check the online catalog before forwarding an order for a veterinary book. It is probably already in the collection. However, if additional copies are needed please let me know.

I need the most help selecting human biomedical books, and books that support new areas of teaching and research, and specialized/obscure materials, including ebooks and DVDs. An example of a specialized/obscure material that I found out about while eating a bagel in the foyer is the Glass Horse DVD from UGA CVM.
