Library Agreement
We have an agreement with our sister school Alexander College for Brighton College students to use their library resources. They are located down the street at 4805 Kingsway in Burnaby.
Alexander College’s library provides the highest level of resources and instructional services so students can perform research, study, and surf the web with confidence. Services are under constant re-evaluation to ensure they are up-to-date and responsive. The College builds and maintains a physical collection of relevant materials for students. It includes a wide range of databases for student use through a centralized Discovery system, which includes eBooks, academic articles, periodicals, and reports. For more information, refer to Alexander College’s library page.
