Learn about the AC Library and Resources
Subject guides are lists of resources compiled by Alexander College’s librarians that will help you find information that is relevant to the assignments you will be writing over the course of your studies.
The following guides are to assist you with understanding some of the different services the library offers, for more information please contact either campuses librarian.
If you are enrolled in courses, you are eligible to receive a student ID card. All you need to do is bring a government issued piece of photo ID (a passport, BCID, driver’s license) to the library. Be ready to give your student number and one class you are enrolled in to confirm your enrollment. Printing a card is free for the first time. If you are looking to replace a lost ID, a replacement fee of $25 has to be paid at the bookstore. Click here for more details.

When you take out your first book at the library, we create your library account. After that, all you need is to show your card when borrowing material from the library. For more information click here.
