Not normally. Did you book with a TA who sends edocs? If so, call and see if you can have the book instead. I have heard of some TA's charging more to send the book. Some online agencies only use the edocs to reduce their cost. If you booked direct with Celebrity call and ask what kind of documents they will send you.

The edocs are fairly new. They used to be sent only when a booking was made within 60 days of the sail date. Now TA's have the option to have them sent instead of the book. It saves them time and postage resending them to their clients. However, TA's can request tht the documents (book) be sent directly to the cruiser, bypassing the TA. This is what our TA does for us since we are in a different state from her.
