Library Services for High School Students
Use of library facilities
High school students are welcome to visit Western Libraries and make use of most collections. Guest computers are available for accessing the library website and shared library catalogue. Some printing and photocopying facilities are also available along with a variety of types of work/study space. To protect the environment within Western Libraries, eating and drinking is prohibited in all areas of all libraries unless otherwise designated.
Use of library collections
High school students are not eligible to borrow from Western Libraries but may make use of collections on site. Use of electronic resources via Guest Computers may be limited according to licensing agreements. For more information please see Acceptable Use Guidelines for Electronic Resources.
Use of library research services
While staff are available at Library Info Desks to assist visitors with questions about the access and/or use of Western Libraries resources, visitors to Western Libraries should be aware that priority is given to supporting the needs of current students, faculty, and staff of the University.
Class visits / instruction sessions
Western Libraries regrets that it does not have the resources to provide library instruction for high school groups.
