contents The Evolution of Library Services for Off-Campus and Distance Education Students in British Columbia. Slade, Alexander L. And Others Adult Education Developed Nations Distance Education Extension Education Fees Foreign Countries Higher Education Interlibrary Loans Library Collections Library Instruction Library Services Library Surveys Online Searching Outreach Programs Reference Services Telephone Communications Systems This report examines the institutionalization of library services for distance education students at four educational institutions in British Columbia, and provides an overview of the status of distance library services in British Columbia by comparing those services with distance library service provided elsewhere in Canada. The development and current status of distance library services at the University of British Columbia (UBC), the University of Victoria (UVic), Simon Fraser University (SFU), and the Open Learning Institute (OLI) are described, and the common distance library service elements of the four institutions are compared, including core collections, special telephone lines, requests for specific material, reference queries, interlibrary loans, computer literature searches, advertisement of services, bibliographic instruction, support staff, and charges for service. This comparison reveals that library services are an important component of university extension and distance education in British Columbia. The 31 replies received in a national survey of 42 university libraries, however, indicate that few libraries elsewhere in Canada employ a model of distance library service similar to the one used in British Columbia. It is noted that the growing body of literature on distance library services will help promote more awareness of these services and facilitate the development of a closer working relationship between distance education personnel and librarians.
