Please return all library material prior to May 15, 2025 or request a special extended loan from staff on Vanguard material only.

In 2025, your library will introduce a new way for students, faculty, and staff to search and find library resources. Our catalogue will be decommissioned at that time (or shortly thereafter). Some items in this catalogue will no longer allow holds. Please contact desk staff for more information.

Did you know that when you search the library catalogue you are searching all the NEOS libraries at the same time? Sometimes you see results that are electronic, and this short video gives you some more information about how to access them properly! 

Vanguard College Library recognizes that our catalogue and resource descriptions contain language that reflects the biases, norms, and perspectives of the time in which they were created. In particular, for resources about persons and groups, this language is often outdated and harmful. These descriptions also incorporate controlled vocabularies, such as the Library of Congress Subject Headings, which include some headings that are offensive or inappropriate. We use international standards for description, but support and actively participate in efforts to update and change these practices as we strive for descriptions that are inclusive, respectful, and do not cause harm. We acknowledge the critical importance of community collaboration in these effort, and as residents on Treaty 6 territory and Métis Region 4 we commit to working together with our local communities to make these changes.
