The MacOdrum Library building is closed to students and faculty; however, our online resources and services are available to you and staff are committed to assisting students and faculty remotely.
The decision to close the library building was made in consideration of the health of students and staff and to do our part to slow the spread of Covid-19 in our community. On Monday, the Ontario Public Health Minister recommended closing libraries across the province and on Tuesday, the Declaration of the State of Emergency took steps to limit gatherings of 50 people or more and the closing of public spaces.
