Services

Library Card

Holders enjoy the same borrowing privileges as enrolled students, with the exception of reserve materials and equipment. Alumni of Life West can use their student ID card for five years after graduation at no charge.  The library has substitute library cards, if the student ID is no longer available.  However a picture ID such as a driver's license is required with the substitute card.

Literature search

A librarian executes a subject, title or author search on the various article databases subscribed to by the library. A printout of the citations is mailed for your review. You can then request copies of the articles from our library. Literature searches are sent out within 3-5 days of your request.

Journal Article Copying Service

Every effort is made to locate the articles in journals and books in our library collection. The copying price includes photocopy supplies and postage. A person can request 10 photocopies per week or a maximum of 25 photocopies per month. Please allow at least one week for the delivery of your documents.

Interlibrary Loan

If the material is not in our collection the staff can request copies of the material from other libraries. The interlibrary loan fee includes processing the loan request via the Docline system, the price charged by the borrowing library, and postage.

Video Duplication | More information

Available for selected Life West productions only.  Audiovisual staff can duplicate videos only if the presenter gave written permission at the time of recording. 

Standard Delivery Method

Materials are sent through U.S. mail.  There is a surcharge for Special Delivery Services.

Special Delivery Methods

If time is of the essence for document delivery, you can request a PDF or Fax. Cost includes the regular price of the photocopying plus the delivery of the material within 24 hours.  We provide shipping by UPS or FedEx at cost.
