UTM Library partially re-opens on September 8
The Library has re-opened its main floor to the U of T community. Users must plan ahead to reserve study spaces, computer workstations, and printers; access to the other floors and to the Library stacks is currently unavailable.
Loans extended to December 18
In response to continued government restrictions related to the pandemic, we have extended loans on all Library items, including inter-library loans, to December 18.
Curbside Pickup Service
Students, faculty, staff, and external borrowers with valid University of Toronto library cards can now request books from the Library stack collection for contactless pickup while the Library is open.
HathiTrust Emergency Temporary Access Service (ETAS)
Through the HathiTrust ETAS, current students and faculty can read digitized versions of more than 3 million of the Libraries’ in-copyright print books published before 2004.
