Continuity of Library Services

University Library Online
This guide will help you locate USask library services and other resources that are available as USask experiences a brief or prolonged closure.

Check the Quick Guide to Services for a comprehensive list of which library services are available.

As the librarian for the Western College of Veterinary Medicine, I am still available to provide assistance by email, WebEx or Teams.

** NEW RESOURCE - Plumb's Veterinary Drugs

Plumb's Veterinary Drugs
Plumb’s Veterinary Drugs, accessible on your tablet, smartphone, and computer, is continually updated so you have the most current information available to help you make more informed drug decisions.
Readily find dosing information for the drugs you prescribe every day with quick, easy access to the most up‑to‑date version of Plumb's, wherever you practice.

NOTE: Faculty members can set up individual accounts to access the app by emailing the Veterinary Medicine liaison librarian, who will facilitate access. Students wanting access to the app can subscribe to Plumb’s individual plan at a student rate of $4.95 USD. Students should use the SheerID website to verify student status to receive a discount code prior to subscribing, and each year thereafter, in order to keep the student rate while in school. Veterinary technicians are not eligible for individual accounts or access to the app, but can access Plumb’s through the library site.

License Information: There are no restrictions to the number of simultaneous users. Access is restricted to current students, faculty, and staff of the University of Saskatchewan Library for educational, research, and non-commercial personal use. It is accessible in the library, on campus, and remotely. Systematic copying or downloading of electronic resource content, including the downloading of a full issue, is not permitted by Canadian and International Copyright law.
