About Reciprocal Borrowing
The UFV Library has arrangements with post-secondary libraries in B.C. and across Canada that allows students and employees to borrow library materials while visiting another library, free of charge. Some libraries may offer additional services, such as access to computers, wi-fi, and online resources.
When borrowing from another library through this arrangement:
Libraries in B.C.
UFV is a member of the CPSLD (Council of Post-Secondary Library Directors) and has a reciprocal borrowing agreement with publicly-funded post-secondary institutions across B.C.
Libraries across Canada
The UFV Library is a member of COPPUL (Council of Prairie and Pacific University Libraries), which provides reciprocal borrowing among its members and with most other post-secondary libraries across Canada. A COPPUL card is required to borrow materials.
