Frequently Asked Questions - Borrowing

• Go back to your own library and ask them for a free Alberta Library Card (TAL) which enables you to borrow books free of charge from participating libraries. Check out our borrowing privileges for TAL borrowers webpage; or

4. Can I sign out journals?
Faculty, staff, and students can sign out most journals for a period of 2 weeks. Current journals (those received in the last 12 months) can only be checked out for 1 day. The "Received Date" stamped on the front of the journal is what is used to gauge the 12 month period.

5. Can I sign out government documents?
No, government documents must be used in the Library. Photocopiers are available on levels 9, 10 and 11 in the Library.

6. When can I pick up audiovisual equipment?
You can pick up this equipment at the General Services Desk on Level 10 any hours that the Library is open.

7. Do you have a record of the titles I have borrowed from the Library in the past?
Sorry, once you have returned your library items, your record is wiped clean and we have no way of knowing what you checked out in the past.
