Library resources
In Arts First classes, you might meet and work with a librarian. Librarians, and the Library itself, are important resources on campus to support you in your academic work. Librarians can help you choose academic materials, act as information experts, and teach students how to conduct introductory research in the university setting.
Research guide
A librarian can provide a subject guide with recommended resources specific to your class and can meet with you individually or in small groups to help you with your questions.
Who is my librarian?
Librarians at the University of Waterloo work with specific academic programs as they have specialized research expertise in those areas. Your librarian’s information may be listed on your class guide, or a listing of librarians by their areas of specialization.
