Libraries annual report 2025

The Libraries invite you to discover our 2025 annual report, which highlights a year of both reflection and forward momentum.

Every February, the global data community celebrates Love Data Week, hosted by the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR). This year’s theme, “Where’s the data?”, invites us to think about the journey data takes, from collection to analysis, storage to preservation. 

As part of the Library’s efforts to ensure learning materials are freely accessible and available to learners and researchers at Waterloo, we’re once again seeking applications from Waterloo instructors with projects to create or adapt an open educational resource (OER) for a Waterloo course.

The two-year pilot project exploring the campus-wide implementation of Open Researcher and Contributor Identifiers (ORCID) will officially conclude in early 2026.

Every October, universities and organizations around the world celebrate Open Access Week (OAW), a time to reflect on the current state of open access and explore the benefits of increasing open access across academic research.

The University of Waterloo Libraries are undergoing a 15-year strategic space planning activity, and we need your help! Campus feedback is critical to shaping the future of the Libraries.
