Library Services

Library Services at the University of Guelph-Humber are provided to both faculty and students by a dedicated team of library professionals and in collaboration with its partner institutions. The UoGH book collection is located at the Humber North Campus Library and is complemented by access to the collections in the TriUniversity Group of Libraries (TUG includes University of Guelph, University of Waterloo, and Wilfrid Laurier University.) Book and document requests from TUG partner libraries will be delivered to the Humber North Campus Library within 2-4 days. Presentation of the non-transferable Student ID Card is required each time a book is borrowed from the Library. This card also provides University of Guelph-Humber students with access to many online databases and electronic books as well as borrowing privileges at other Ontario university libraries.

One-on-one research assistance for students is available from UoGH Library staff in the Writing Centre, conveniently located in the UoGH building. Library staff is available to assist in the use of a wide range of print and electronic information resources, both in-person and remotely through chat reference. The Library also provides research support through student leaders working as Research Support Peers in the Learning Commons. Other Learning Commons services located in the UoGH building include the Math Centre and Writing Centre, and Computer Support Assistants and Learning Support Peers. Orientation tours and classroom presentations in the use of the library resources, research databases, and citation styles are provided. Photocopiers and printers are located in the Learning Commons and the Humber Library. Individual and group study facilities, including the Practice Presentation Room, are available in the Learning Commons in the UoGH building and at Humber College.
