New Gerontology Books at SFU Library!
All new books and other resources for Gerontology are listed and updated weekly on the Gerontology new library acquisitions page.
Below are course assignment guides for Gerontology courses taught in current and previous semesters; guides for the current semester are marked in red, but you can also check the SFU Current Calendar Course Descriptions Search. Course guides are usually only updated when there's a new instruction session for that class, so information on these pages might be dated. See also SFU's Grade Scale
