Need an interesting image or the perfect picture?

The Wellcome Library has recently made ordering new photography from our wonderful collections a lot easier with our new online photography ordering service. We think this is a first – we’ve not seen any other library providing a service online quite like this.


We’ve made it easy for you to simply make your selections from our catalogue whenever you see the ‘request new photography’ button.


We’ve also given you the option to fill in all the form details yourself if you prefer.

 As well as making the process simpler for you, our staff are also benefitting from clear catalogue information and no more struggles with “doctor’s handwriting”.


We’ve already fulfilled online orders from as far afield as Germany and India. And don’t forget – you can already download many images immediately and for free from the excellent Wellcome Images.

Thanks go to everyone who helped to bring this to fruition: our users who helped our testing, Library and Wellcome Images staff, and staff from the Wellcome Trust’s web team, finance and IT departments.
