Course Materials at the Library

The library loans books that are required and suggested reading for NorQuest classes. Choose your program area from the menu on the left to find out how you can access required and suggested books through the library.

Reserve Collection Regular Collection

Most required books and some suggested books are available through the Reserve Collection. Reserve books are: 

  • Kept behind the Library Help Desk
  • Available for 3-hour loans
  • Only available to NorQuest students
  • Sometimes available as eBooks

 

Returning reserve items late consistently will result in a loss of access to the Reserve Collection. 

If a required or suggested book is not in the Reserve Collection, it may be in the regular library collection. These books are: 

  • On the public library shelves
  • Available for 3-week loans
  • Available to all library users
  • Sometimes available as eBooks
Remember: 
  • If you are not sure which books you need, please check your misiwe pehtâkwan or speak to your instructor
  • Always check with your instructor before using an older edition of a required textbook
  • Course materials can be purchased through The Core
