MEET THE WORLD IN THE CAREY LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Students have access to the John Richard Allison Library at Regent, the H. R. McMillan Library at Vancouver School of Theology, the St Mark’s College Library, and any of the UBC libraries. The Allison Library, jointly owned by Carey and Regent has one of the largest theological collections in western Canada.
Carey maintains an updated student list at all campus libraries; these lists include all students who have been accepted into an accredited program and are actively taking courses. Students may obtain a Allison Library card by showing proof of enrolment in a course or their Carey Student ID card. UBC library cards can be obtained at the UBC Bookstore. A UBC student number is required; request yours from the Registrar’s Office.
UBC’s Inter-Library Loan service is available to students to obtain books or resources not already available. Books need to be picked up and returned in person; the UBC library will not mail items to students. Journal articles requested through ILL will be emailed to students. For help obtaining items not available through the ILL process, such as articles only in print format, contact the Allison Library Reference Librarian, or a UBC Librarian for assistance.
Students who do not live near UBC are encouraged to check with their local colleges, universities, and seminaries. UBC Library participates in reciprocal borrowing agreements at many university libraries throughout Canada. Refer here for details on reciprocal borrowing privileges in Canada: http://services.library.ubc.ca/borrowing-services/reciprocal-borrowing/
To use reciprocal borrowing, students need a COPPUL (Council of Prairie and Pacific University Libraries) card. Contact David Harakal at david.harakal@ubc.ca or phone 604-822-1443 to have a COPPUL card mailed to you. You must provide your UBC student number and other contact information.
ONLINE LIBRARY RESOURCES
Online library databases are a useful source of information. The Allison Library has remote access to the largest on-line religious databases. These include: ATLA Religion Database with ATLASerials, Catholic Periodical and Literature Index, Christian Periodical Index, New Testament Abstracts (NTA), Old Testament Abstracts (OTA), ProQuest Religion Database, and Religious and Theological Abstracts (RTA).
Access the Allison Online Library through your Carey SIS account at https://sis.carey-edu.ca. For access to the UBC library’s online databases login to your CWL account
BOOKS
Books and other resources are an essential component of the learning process. Students are expected to obtain required textbooks for each course. These are a notable expense costing up to $150 per course. If finances are limited, students are advised to invest carefully in those essential reference works that will become a permanent and valued part of their library.
Books may be obtained through local or on-line bookstores. Carey does not operate a bookstore; however the Regent Bookstore at 5800 University Blvd., Vancouver is operated as a service to students and the public. The bookstore has many texts in stock and can secure titles upon order. (Email: bookstore@regent-college.edu, Phone 1-800-334-3279)
Books may also be borrowed from libraries, as mentioned above. All required textbooks will be available at the Allison Library.

Carey seeks to be a community in which students, faculty and staff can grow together, free from discrimination and harassment. We are identified by our commitment to Jesus Christ and to the Scriptures which make Him known. Our purpose is that each of the members of Carey lead exemplary and honourable lives, consistent with and faithful to this revelation. So it is that we seek to love, honour, serve, guide and, where we have failed, to seek to make and be made right with one another. We acknowledge that we sometimes fail to live up to the high ideals upon which we claim to rest. Relationships may be fractured through acts or attitudes that either intentionally or unintentionally cause hurt. Discrimination and harassment, including sexual harassment, are two of many possible ways in which this sense of Christian community may be betrayed.
Anyone who believes that he or she has been subjected to comment or conduct which might constitute discrimination or harassment should report it to the Registrar.
