Library

The Association maintains a professional library that contains an extensive collection of books, periodicals and DVDs/videos available to all Association members. Members may access these materials by coming into the library, or they may reserve items directly from the online catalogue as found on the ATA's website www.teachers.ab.ca. Access to 2 full-text databases is available by logging into TNET and clicking on "Journal Articles Online" (lower right-hand corner).

Reference services and materials are available in English and French.

Requested print items are sent by mail (return postage prepaid) and can be borrowed for one month. Renewals may be arranged by telephone or e-mail, provided the item has not been requested by another patron. DVDs/videos are loaned for 10 days and are sent by courier. Because the collection is limited, these items should be booked in advance.

To request materials or services, contact the library in person, by phone (780-447-9400) or by e-mail.

Library hours are Monday to Friday 0800-1700 (September through June) and 0830-1630 (July and August). For French support contact Conchita Rico.
