Students/Learners

NorQuest Library is dedicated to teaching students how to find and choose the most appropriate resources for assignments. We will help you do this efficiently, saving you valuable time. Feel free to drop by the Library Desk if you have a question about your assignment or need help finding books and information.

Please note library staff cannot complete tasks you are being assessed on for your assignment (example: proofreading citations, finding sources of information on your behalf).
