Continuity of Library Services

Continuity of Library Services Guide:

This guide will help you locate USask library services and other resources that are available as USask experiences a brief or prolonged closure. Please refer to this helpful Quick Guide to Services for a complete list of services and availability.

Contactless Pickup at the Library:

Contactless Pickup at the library can be arranged for borrowing physical items in our collection. Additionally, portions of items, such as select pages/chapters of books or print articles, can be scanned and delivered via email.

Continued support of the College of Nursing:

As the dedicated librarian for nursing, you can contact me via email if you need research support and/or training. I am available to meet via WebEx or Skype if you need assistance at this time.
