In March 2024 the Library launched a user survey, asking members of the University of Waterloo community to share their feedback on how satisfied they are with the services, resources and expertise provided by the Library, and which ones are most important to reaching their goals.  

Key stakeholders, including the Library, the Office of Research, and representatives that participate in a Bibliometrics Working Group (BWG), have come together to support the implementation of Open Researcher and Contributor Identifiers (ORCID) across the University, starting with a two-year pilot project to explore how a campus-wide approach could support researchers.

This week Canada is celebrating National AccessAbility Week – an opportunity to highlight the work of the people and groups removing barriers and reflect on the work yet to do to make Canada a more accessible, inclusive home for all. 

The Library is delighted to share this year’s Sharon Lamont Student Award winners, Sarah Chun and Udani De Silva. This is the third year the award is being given out to two students who have worked at the Library and have, through extracurricular involvement, supported equity, diversity and inclusion initiatives.
