Leddy Library and Centre for Teaching and Learning Launch Learning Materials Affordability Hub 

Open Education Week 2026, March 2nd to 6th, is an annual global celebration dedicated to sharing and promoting achievements in Open Education. This year the Centre for Teaching and Learning and the Leddy Library are focusing on student affordability.

October 20–26, 2025 | Theme: Who Owns the Knowledge?

International Open Access Week is a global event promoting free and immediate access to scholarly research. Now in its 18th year, it invites researchers, institutions, and communities to explore the benefits of Open Access and advocate for equitable knowledge sharing.
This year’s theme, “Who Owns the Knowledge?”, sparks important conversations about access, ownership, and the future of scholarly communication.

Leddy Library is pleased to announce the opening of a new breastfeeding room, designed to provide a private, safe, and welcoming space for parents on campus. The breastfeeding room reflects the library’s ongoing commitment to meeting the diverse needs of our campus community.

Equipped with amenities such as a refrigerator, electric kettle, comfortable seating, and a diaper change table, the space offers a supportive environment for parents to care for their children while balancing academic, work, and family responsibilities.

A new digital project introduces students to a university library and provides them with an opportunity to familiarize themselves with how to conduct academic research at the post-secondary level.

“Humanities Research in the Digital Age” spans five interactive modules and is the work of archivist Sarah Glassford and history professor Gregg French in collaboration with learning specialist Mark Lubrick with funding through a Digital Open and Online Learning Grant from the Office of Open Learning.

Journal agreements extend reach of University of Windsor research

The Leddy Library is signing agreements with academic journal publishers to make it easier for University of Windsor authors to publish their articles as Open Access. Open Access publishing allows authors to extend readership by reducing barriers to access, thereby increasing the impact and citability of the research.

The Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL) and the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC) will host an online forum in advance of Open Access Week.

The Leddy Library offers trials of new databases to allow students, faculty, and staff to evaluate the resource’s suitability and provide feedback before subscribing.
