How many articles can you request from the same issue of a journal?

  In a few instances I have been asked to submit ILL requests for two or more articles from the same volume and issue of the same journal at the same time. I think this may occur when a journal devotes the entire issue to one topic and the patron is researching that topic. To me this sounds like a copyright violation, but I need to find something official in writing that will back me up before I cancel any of these requests. I would be willing to pay any CONTU fees if that were the only issue. Please help!! Thanks

  I answered this for someone a few weeks ago -- it's six or more from the past five years of the same periodical TITLE that counts. So it could even be six requests for the very same article over the course of a calendar year and you'd be okay.
