The Inter University Transit System (IUTS) is primarily an Inter Library Loan (ILL) book service, operated under the authority of the Council of Ontario Universities. Books are moved between specific Ontario universities and other specific government/university affiliated organizations, on a daily basis (Monday – Friday). The service also allows for the movement of mail between IUTS partners. Mail for York University and University of Toronto are on a twice a week shipping schedule (Tuesday and Thursday), rather than daily.
All are next day delivery with the exceptions of the Northern Universities such as Laurentian, Algoma, Nipissing and Lakehead which are 2 day delivery.
IUTS items received at University of Waterloo are sorted by Central Stores at the East Campus Hall (ECH) facility and injected into the scheduled mail and freight delivery process, daily.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg, and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
