The Alberta Library (also known as TAL)

Created in 1997, The Alberta Library has grown into an award-winning consortium of over 290 member libraries that work to promote barrier-free access to information, ideas and culture. Members include public, university, college, technical institute and special libraries. Internationally recognized for collaboration and innovation, The Alberta Library is the result of the library community coming together to find better ways of providing services.

Ask a Question

The Ask A Question Service provides virtual reference service to Albertans in the public library sector as well as to registered students, faculty and staff of participating post-secondary institutions in the province. The service allows Albertans to e-mail a question at any time and receive an answer via email from qualified reference staff, generally within 24 hours.
