On May 29-30th 2013 the University of Windsor played host to the International Symposium on Arab Youth: Developmental Pathways for Identity. The conference organizers, Julie Hakim-Larson and Rosanne Menna, have worked with the Leddy Library to help provide access to the posters and presentations from the event. The results are now starting to be made available in the Scholarship at UWindsor institutional repository and can be found at the link below. Take some time to take a look or even explore the contents from other departments on our campus.
We now have a new page: http://leddy.uwindsor.ca/dictionaries-encyclopedias-handbooks where you can find many of the scholarly dictionaries, encyclopedias, and handbooks on offer that are online from Leddy

The Leddy Library does not accept bitcoin... but our UWin cash machine was refurbished on Friday and so we are now able to accept ALL new monies, loonies, toonies and the new 'plastic' bills.
The Leddy Library supports the Canadian Library Association’s position on the libel suits against Dale Askey and urges Edwin Mellen Press to cease all remaining legal action in this regard. The Leddy Library considers these suits to be an affront to intellectual freedom.
Freedom to Read Week is an annual event that encourages Canadians to think about and reaffirm their commitment to intellectual freedom, which is guaranteed them under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
When you can find ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ readily available at your local grocery or drugstore, do we even need to worry about the Freedom to Read anymore?
Yes.
The Leddy Library can now be found in the University of Windsor's mobile app.
At the moment, you can check with a glance whether the library is open and with just a click, you can see what books you have out and when they are due back at the library.
The Leddy Library extends a hearty congratulations to the staff of The Paul Martin Law Library for their Service Excellence – Team award they received yesterday as part of the University of Windsor Employee Recognition Awards.
