Instructor Guide to CUE Library Services & Resources

What Can You Request Through Interlibrary Loan?

1. Articles that CUE Library does not have full-text access to
2. Single chapters of ebook chapters that CUE Library does not have full-text access to
3. Books that do not belong to NEOS member libraries
   • e.g. University of Calgary, University of Lethbridge...

Check CUE Holdings First

Check our catalogue to ensure that the article or ebook chapter is not available at CUE or, if requesting a book, that the book is from outside the NEOS library system. 

If you're unsure whether or not an item can be requested through interlibrary loan, please contact us at library@concordia.ab.ca.
