Interlibrary Loans

If the library material you want to borrow isn't available through the TRACpac online catalog or the TRACpac app, you can request material to be brought in from outside of the TRAC system.

Search for and place holds on materials from any participating Alberta Public or Academic Library with the Relais D2D Inter-Library Loan service. 

Yellowhead Regional Library system is part of The Regional Automation Consortium (TRAC), which is a partnership of the Marigold Library System, Peace Library System, Northern Lights Library System, and Yellowhead Regional Library. Using TRACpac you can search a combined catalogue of over 170 libraries with holdings of nearly three million books, DVDs and other material.

Drayton Valley Municipal Library is part of the Yellowhead Regional Library System (YRL).
