Please note the following Guidelines:
If you're looking for a book the Brock Library does not have, you may want to check if a nearby university library has it in their collection:
Students may borrow books in person from other Ontario university libraries (Direct Borrowing), with the exception of the University of Toronto. A valid Brock University Identification Card is required, and users may be required to show additional picture identification. Books may be returned to the lending library or to the Circulation Services Desk at the James A. Gibson Library.
Arrangements also exist for borrowing from out-of-province universities (Atlantic, Quebec, Prairie and Pacific).
See Canadian Universities Reciprocal Borrowing Agreement for more information.
What if Brock does not have the article/book I need?
RACER Interlibrary Loan allows users to search in all Ontario university and worldwide libraries to place requests for items that Brock does not own.
First-time users need to register & create a PIN. More information here.
Need help? Watch the RACER Set up and Simple Search video tutorial.
What if the article I want is only available in print at the Library?
You can order a photocopy! The article must be available in print in the Brock Library.
Cost: $.12 per page, plus the cost of mailing.
