  1. Patron requests electronic copy of entire legacy work. HUA receives order in Aeon, selects appropriate transaction queue ("Awaiting HD Processing" if undigitized, "Request Finished" if previously digitized), and routes Aeon order to HUAPRES.
    1. If patron approaches HUA first, they are directed to http://aeon.hul.harvard.edu/ to place order.
  2. When microfilm copies of theses exist, Patron Services (PS) staff can generate an invoice based on microfilm frame count. (When such invoices are delivered to a patron, the option of a positive, film copy of the microfilm for $80.00 plus shipping charges is also mentioned.) When no microfilm exists, or when a frame-count-based estimate is paid, ImagingServices requests original work from HUA.

    3. HUA staff deliver original works to Imaging Services in ~weekly batches.
  4. Invoices are valid for 90 days. If invoice remains unpaid for that time, or if patron initiates cancellation of an order, original work is returned to HUA book truck located in Widener D-20. This truck is emptied by HUA staff on a monthly basis.
  5. If patron accepts price quote, Imaging Services handles payment and Imaging Services generates estimate. A flat fee of $125 (plus $10 for electronic delivery) is charged for digitization of a thesis and conversion to a pdf. $30 is charged for DRS download and delivery of previously-digitized theses.
