Part Two: Course Completion

Library Services

You can contact the Athabasca University Library in several ways. You can call the Learning Centres in Edmonton and Calgary and use the automated telephone attendant to connect with the Library. If you live outside of these direct calling areas, you may call into the automated attendant by dialing 1-800-788-9041. In addition, you may fax a request to (780) 675-6477. You will need to provide your student ID number, address, telephone number, and the name and number of the course in which you are registered. You can also request materials by mail or in person.

Access to the Library's online catalogue (AUCAT) is available at the Central Office in Athabasca and at the Learning Centres. If you have a microcomputer, a modem, and a computer account, you may search the Library's collection on your own. Please follow the instructions provided in the documentation package that was sent to you when you returned the electronic communication postcard.

You may also use your local public library, or a local community college or university library that extends borrowing privileges to the public without charge or for a nominal fee. Although you may decide to make use of local resources first, remember that the AU Library has a growing collection with which to serve its students.

Please consult the current AU Calendar for more information on library services. Visit the Library's Web site at library.athabascau.ca or go to the Athabasca University home page at www.athabascau.ca and click on "the library" link on the right hand side.
