Changes are coming to the Library catalogue

University of Waterloo Library is one of 14 members of the Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL) coming together to create a single academic search tool called Omni. Learn more about the project on our Omni website.

Some of the things that Omni includes:

• Waterloo’s print and electronic resources including peer-reviewed articles
• Print resources across 14 Ontario universities for easy requesting
• A journal search which finds both print and electronic journal titles in our collection
• A newspaper search which searches across a variety of newspapers
• Phased-in WatIAM authentication

For the best Omni experience, please consider the following:

Place your hold requests now! You will not be able to place holds from December 3 to December 12.

Save your e-shelf. Saved items and search settings in your current library account will not migrate to the new version. Read these instructions to save these items.

Update your links! Do you have links to specific resources in the library catalogue? You may need to update these links after December 12. Please Ask us for help.
