Does the U of A Library provide distance services for students who live out of town, or in rural or remote communities?
Answer
Yes, any current University of Alberta student and faculty located 50 km or more from Edmonton*, either temporarily (e.g. field placement) or ongoing, is entitled to home delivery service, or if you require this service for a medical accommodation. Patrons must Register/Renew for delivery of library materials to a home/work address.
*If you're taking courses, or teaching, at a University of Alberta location outside of Edmonton you will need to reside 50 km from that location.
