As we prepare for the launch of an exciting new service that will simplify borrowing between 16 Ontario University Libraries, we are making some changes to our loan policies.
Loan periods for most books in our collection will be changing to 120 days + unlimited renewals for all students, faculty and staff. This means that as long as you continue to renew your book online, users with active accounts can keep the book as long as you need.
Given the library's announced migration to Omni, our upgraded library system, we are unable to process renewals of items until Monday January 6th.
If you need to renew items and are unable to get to the library in person, you can also call us at 519-253-3000 ext. 3402.
In addition to renewals:
Summer is the perfect time to catch up on leisure reading, whether you’re reading beside the pool, at the park, or in the (air conditioned!) library. This year, make your summer reads really count by entering the Leddy Library’s Summer Reading Challenge!
For every book you read this summer, cast a ballot for a chance to win a special book-related prize. The more books you read, the greater your chance of winning!
There will be a free movie screening celebrating 100 years of Canadian film for National Canadian Film Day! Free popcorn and prizes will be provided!
UPDATE: 1/21/2019 Request and recalls have been restored. Thank you for your patience.

Happy Open Access Week!
One of the ways that the Leddy Library supports making access free to the reader, is by the support and hosting of scholarly journals, including openly licensed ones. The Leddy Library provides software, support and hosting services for academic journals, monographs, and conferences that manage the process from submission to publication.
We currently host the following journals:
