The university has two libraries that offer comfortable study spaces, silent study room, and bookable group study rooms.
At the North Oshawa Library, we have the cozy Fireside Reading Room, a digital media recording room, an assisted-use carrel room with adaptive technology, colour printers, many computer workstations, and a 3D printing service.
At the Social Science, Education and Humanities Library, there are die-cutting machines, the beautiful Sleightholm Education Room, individual study carrels, a group study room, and a silent study room.
You can also borrow equipment like laptops, chargers, and podcast kits.
Hours of operation at the Libraries vary throughout the year. We encourage visitors to check our website for up to date hours.
While you're on our website, check out our Research Guides to find information organized by Faculty and program. Research Guides highlight a selection of the best resources for each program, including article databases, books, statistics, websites and more. We even have a Citation Research Guide with short how-to guides for APA, MLA, legal and other citation styles.
Whenever you need research help, assistance or have questions, the Library is here to help you.
Use the Library's Ask a Librarian chat to receive immediate research support from library staff. Find out today's chat hours and start a chat by using the Ask a Librarian chat tab at the bottom of the Library website.
Contact the Library if you have questions about checking out resources, reference and research questions, or to make inquiries with a specific Library. Need a resource the Library doesn't seem to have? Learn about our Interlibrary Loan service and sign up to request articles, books, and other resources from other Libraries.
Each faculty and program also has its own Subject Librarian. These subject experts can provide research support to students, faculty and staff. We are available by email and telephone, or in-person and online for research consultations. Book an appointment to discuss research help for assignments, citation tools, advanced research and support, access to datasets, and more.
We are here to help!
