Welcome to the Library & Learning Commons

NIC is honoured to acknowledge the traditional territories of the combined 35 First Nations of the Nuu-chah-nulth, Kwakwaka'wakw, and Coast Salish traditions, on whose traditional and unceded territories the college campuses are situated.

Whether you're a new or returning student, an ElderCollege member, or a community member, the NIC Library & Learning Commons invites you to explore our collections and services.

Visit the library to access our collection of print and digital materials, meet with your group in one of the study rooms, discover writing and math resources, get your questions answered about student technologies, and learn valuable research skills you'll need to make your academic year a success.

For more information, visit or call the NIC Library & Learning Commons nearest you.

"The Library and Learning Commons is a vibrant space where students can access academic support services such as research, writing, math, peer tutoring, and IT help. Flexible, collaborative, and individual study spaces provide students with a rich learning environment where ideas are shared and learning is enhanced."
