Complex licensing agreements mean access to online resources like Libby and hoopla is excluded from non-resident borrowing privileges across Alberta, including at WBRL. We are unable to provide non-residents or patrons signed up through ME or TAL access to our online resources. Please access online resources offered through your local library.
