Welcome to the Toronto Metropolitan University Library
It’s the start of a new academic year, but as we’re all experiencing, this is a much different start than any other year. All of us at the Library want you all to know, we’re here for you!
The Library team is an amazing group of talented, creative and innovative experts who share a commitment to collaboration with a strong service focus. We are committed to the academic success of all students, to supporting excellence in teaching and learning, and to advancing the scholarly, research and creative activities (SRC) and achievements of faculty and graduate students. We are happy to be able to provide the majority of our services, programming and resources virtually, but we also know that some students may need onsite study space, access to computers, wifi, and in some cases access to specialized equipment and collections. For those reasons we have introduced an appointment booking system to help provide limited access to some of our onsite study spaces.
We have been working hard over the summer to make sure we are able to safely and slowly re-open areas of the Library with appropriate health and safety measures to keep everyone safe. And, we have spent many hours making sure our online services are seamless, accessible and available to students and faculty regardless of their location. We are proud of what we have accomplished and we know our efforts and planning are important for the success of students and faculty.
We continue to offer, and have expanded, our innovative virtual services and programs. We have added to our collection of digital resources (ebooks, ejournals, video, data, streaming services, etc.). We have moved all our research support, workshops, and instruction sessions online, and have continued to broaden our support for SRC.
We have been working hard to make sure students and faculty have what they need to succeed – from digital course readings, to laptop and wifi loans, in-person pickup for print-only material, and of course all important live, real-time, help from expert librarians and staff!
I encourage you to take advantage of everything the Library and the campus has to offer, even if in this new virtual environment. Explore, discover, learn, create and share.
Wishing you so much success,
Carol
