The UCFV Library is committed to
providing students and faculty with access to the knowledge of
the world through print, electronic, and other media. With
branches on the Abbotsford, Chilliwack, and Mission campuses,
the library’s collection has been selected to support the
programs and courses taught at UCFV, and currently contains
more than 200,000 print and electronic titles, including books,
journals, newspapers, government publications, videotapes, and
more. The library subscribes to a wide variety of online
article indexes and has access to more than 20,000 electronic
journal titles. The catalogue lists not only the items
physically housed in the campus libraries, but also a growing
collection of websites of use to students and faculty. The
library’s website provides links to the catalogues of
other B.C. and Canadian libraries, so that if a desired item
cannot be found in the UCFV collection, eligible users can
request it through interlibrary loan.
Librarians teach information literacy

first year English and Communications students, and to other
classes on request of faculty. Library staff are available in

research assignments, term papers, or class presentations.

type of material, and fines are charged on overdue items.
