Tips for Shipping Library materials in Alberta 1. Government Courier delivery is an additional delivery method used to move materials beyond the routes of a library system’s own delivery service.
2. The 1st page of this document lists all of the locations in the province that have materials delivered by Government Courier. Items for these libraries can be addressed directly but must have a full address.
3. The 2nd and 3rd pages are locations in the province that receive items only by way of their local library delivery service from their system headquarters or by mail. There are no Government Courier deliveries to these locations.
4. Items being shipped via Government Courier must have complete mailing addresses. Government Courier cannot deliver items with label like these:
Only the Marigold Library System vans deliver to Okotoks and Yellowhead vans to Blue Ridge
5. You may send several smaller bags with the above labels together in a larger parcel (bag, secured bin, or box) directly to a library system for distribution to their member libraries or branches. Clearly label the outside of the parcel with the library system’s name and full address. These parcels will be opened and sorted by library system staff and their contents will be routed to the appropriate library through their local delivery service.
6. SYSTEMS, NODES AND LIBRARIES WHO PRINT WAYBILLS FOR THEIR SERVICE CANADA DEPOTS, PLEASE NOTE: Loomis waybills are addressed to Government Courier Depots and are NOT addressed directly to libraries or library systems. In addition to the waybill you create, it is essential to also note the receiving system or library on a separate label with their full mailing address.

7. 10 libraries in northern Alberta only receive and loan materials through mail. The CULC/CBUC Library Material shipping tool provides return labels free of charge and significantly reduced Library Book Rate.
8. Items being sent to libraries outside of Alberta must be sent by Canada Post. Do not send canvas delivery bags through Canada Post unless you are using the lender’s original delivery bag.
9. Note the Canada Post tracking number for expensive items such as University of Alberta loans.
