Distance Education

As a distance student attending the University of Calgary, you have the resources and services of a large research library available to you.

Document Delivery Services

Students enrolled in a distance education course may use the Document Delivery webpage to request books or journal articles. Items will be sent to you at no cost. Books will include a postage paid label for you to use when returning material to us. Please ensure that you return materials by the posted due date. Journal articles are usually yours to keep.

Is the full text of the article you're about to request already available online? Can you get it yourself right now, instead of waiting for us to get it for you in a few days?
