Welcome!

Welcome to your Library Guide for Mechanical Engineering at BCIT! Use the links in the Guide Contents box (above) to learn about the resources and services you have access to. Some information will be specific to Mechanical Engineering, others are more broad - but all will be useful to you, during your studies and beyond.

Chat with the Librarians at our Research Desk for help with finding and accessing resources for your assessments. If the Research Desk is busy or closed, you can use AskAway, our online research help service.

Our colleagues at the Learning Commons are also ready to help you, in-person, and online. You can:

  • Chat with a Peer Tutor for help understanding the core concepts of your courses
  • Receive feedback and support on your writing through the Writing Centre
  • Build your learning and study skills with a Learning Strategist
