As COVID-19 and the closure of the University of Waterloo campus continues to impact how Special Collections & Archives (SCA) staff interact with on- and off-campus researchers, the SCA team has gotten creative about how it delivers reference and research services. I talked about some of that work in Episode three: Dear Library of the Virtual Library Bunch series back in May.
To expand on that discussion, I've selected some notable and recent additions to the Waterloo Digital Library. The collections outlined below are part of SCA efforts to expand online access to our holdings, the descriptions for which can be browsed online via the Archives Database.
As always, SCA welcomes input regarding available descriptive records, as well as suggestions for improvements to our online services. Contact us with any comments, questions or concerns.
Much of what is on the site would not be possible without the hard scanning work of almost every co-op student that's worked with SCA had since 2016 (Asiya! Elakkiya! Sarah! Ryan! Alice! Tahreem! Ishleen! Katie! Taylor!), as well as the dedicated effort by the SCA team to (re)describe and process records within our care. I would also be remiss not to mention Lathangi Ganesharatnam, Graham Faulkner, and Nick Springate for their on-going technical support.

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 centralized within our Indigenous Initiatives Office.
