![]() | Add literature «Add literature», to add the literature to your course. |

3. Ordering new literature
If the search does not yield any results, the literature is not yet available in DigiSem. You can go ahead and place an order for the desired literature. Please note that it can take up to four weeks until the literature can be obtained by the university library and made available in the ILIAS course.
![]() | Click on the «Order literature» section below the list of results. |
![]() | Fill out the form. |
![]() | Click on «Order» to place the order. |
Once you have submitted the order, you will be redirected back to your course. Here you can see the status of the literature you have ordered. When the university library has scanned or digitized the literature, the red note «Status: in the ordering process» disappears automatically. You and your students now have access to the PDF document.
