Borrowing

The U of R Library provides free delivery of library materials to your home within Canada.

• Sign in to My Library Account with your UofR username and password
• Find the item in Quick Find and click on "Get It"
• Select Request for book in print
• Under 'Pickup at' select 'Personal Delivery - Home Address or Work Address' and then enter your mailing address in the bottom field. 

Books in print are mailed at no charge to you, and include a postage paid label to return the items to us.

Requests are handled in the order they are received. Allow plenty of time to avoid disappointment.

• Turnaround time for all requests will depend on the availability of the requested item.
• Please allow a minimum of two weeks for mail delivery. Materials from the federated college libraries may take longer than Archer Library items. Due to potential shipping delays, we cannot provide a delivery estimate for mail requests.

Note: If the UofR Library does not have the book that you need, use our Interlibrary Loan service.

To addresses in Canada (outside of Regina):

• Books from University of Regina Libraries (including Campion Library, Luther Library, First Nations University Library), including government publications and conference proceedings
• Books from other libraries

To addresses worldwide:

• Articles from University of Regina Libraries and other libraries
• Digitized short excerpts from books.

We regret that we cannot mail physical items to addresses outside Canada because of mailing costs and time that items would be in away from the Library.

• Sign in to My Library Account with your UofR username and password
• Find the journal in Quick Find and click on "Get It"
• Select Digitization if we only have the journal in print

Articles are sent to you electronically. Articles are yours to keep.

Note: If the UofR Library does not have the journal that you need, use our Interlibrary Loan service.

Due date information is mailed with each book. You can renew materials online up to five times (as long as the items are not overdue or requested).

Return items by mail using the package in which the item was received.

Attach the return address label with guaranteed prepaid postage included in the package.

Overdue materials will result in fines and suspension of borrowing privileges. Contact the Help Desk via email (Circ.Mail@uregina.ca) for help with fines.
