- Cancellation – OCLC FirstSearch
After receiving input from several library units, as well as ISUE staff and FE librarians, we made the decision to cancel FirstSearch effective December 31, 2023. Staff let us know that they use Worldcat.org for the type of searches we would once have done via FirstSearch, so this subscription was no longer needed. If you have questions about this cancellation, please email csu@ualberta.ca
