The UFV Library will send materials from its collections to eligible students at a distance at no cost to the student. Requests for items may be placed using the forms below (for fastest service), or by phone, fax, or mail.
Am I Eligible for This Service?
Students at a distance are defined as those students who are:
- enrolled only in UFV courses that do not meet regularly (i.e., at least weekly) on one of our major campuses (Abbotsford, Chilliwack, and Mission); AND
- physically unable to come to a UFV campus library because of distance or disability.
Students who are able to come to campus are required to locate and sign out library materials in person.
