Not on campus? Not even in BC? We can mail books from our physical collection to your address anywhere within Canada.

To request that a library book be shipped to you, place a hold on the book in Discovery. You'll receive an email with further instructions to determine a pick-up or shipping location.

This service is available to current RRU students, faculty and staff.​

Follow the instructions below, or check out our explainer video on YouTube!

 

 

1. First look up the title using our Discovery search tool on the library homepage.

 

2. Click on the title of the book you'd like to request. For example:

 

3. Click "place hold".

4. Enter your RRU username and password to confirm the hold.

5. Once we have pulled the book, you will receive an email that it is ready for pick up.

6. FORWARD that email to rruill@royalroads.ca indicating you would like the book delivered to your home.

 

Repeat these steps for any books you would like mailed to your home.
