 A scanning service for post 1900 items is available. The link to the request form is here: Scan Requests 

Readers and researchers wishing to use material from the Special Collections are advised that written application to library@all-souls.ox.ac.uk must be made well in advance, as there is limited space available. It is helpful if researchers can give several dates on which they could come to the Library. 

Digital photography by readers is not permitted. Images may be requested, depending on the condition of the material. Application must be made to the Library staff.
