High school students from schools within Waterloo Region, Wellington Catholic School Board and the Upper Grand School Board; students must have a letter of introduction from a principal or school librarian validating their need to use an academic library (as of September 1 until the following June 15).
High school students may borrow regularly circulating books from any of the TUG libraries (University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University and University of Guelph) for two weeks and may renew those books indefinitely as long as no one else has recalled them.
Because of the teaching and research needs of our faculty and students, the following services are available to currently registered students only and cannot be extended to high school borrowers:
borrowing of journals or magazines
borrowing of maps and aerial photographs
borrowing of items located in reserves
placing holds and recalls of library material (except materials in the Annex)
The Library subscribes to many journals and other resources in electronic format. Access to most of these electronic resources is available to anyone using a public workstation in the Library. Out-of-library access to these resources is restricted by vendor licenses to currently registered students, faculty and staff of the University.
The Library also maintains an Online Reference Shelf. It links to many subscription-based as well as free resources. Items that are restricted to current faculty, staff, and students are noted by an “[RR]” at the end of the description.
