Delos Rogest Davis: An Extraordinary Canadian

By Lily Zitko
Posted May 6, 2022

Tucked away within the University of Windsor's archival vault, ambiguously described, lay a box labelled “Accession No. 1995-063.” Now renamed as “F 0034 (Delos Rogest Davis fonds)” the contents of this box, donated in June of 1990, were largely untouched until early 2022. What are the contents of the box, you ask? Well, they tell the story of one man who made big waves in the legal community of Windsor-Essex and of Canada. Let me share his story with you. 
 

Loan Policy Changes

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. 

Library Renewals Available Jan 6th

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: 

Leddy Library Summer Reading Challenge

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!

fluoride: (mis)information

We invite members from across the University of Windsor campus, and the greater Windsor-Essex community, to drop by and visit our latest exhibit. Located on the main floor of the Leddy Library, learn about how information is used and misused in the very public controversy over community water fluoridation programs.

Item Requests/Recalls Restored

UPDATE: 1/21/2019 Request and recalls have been restored. Thank you for your patience.

[We have temporarily disabled all requests/recalls on library items. We apologize for the inconvenience and are actively working to resolve the problem. We will update LeddyNews when the service is available again. Thanks for your patience.
