The Education Library and Curriculum Resources Centre, located on the first floor of the Education Building, provides materials and services to support the teaching and research programs of the Faculty. The Library collection includes over 122,000 monograph volumes, 500 periodical titles, government publications, and access to a vast range of e-journals, e-books, and databases.

The Curriculum Resources Centre collection includes elementary and secondary school textbooks, teachers' resource guides, videos, DVDs, CDs, games, kits, puppets, big books, and equipment for viewing and listening. The Children's & Young Adult Literature Collection contains over 11,000 fiction, non-fiction, poetry, folklore, and picture books.

Tours and instructional workshops are offered at the beginning of each term to individual students and to classes. These provide an introduction to library resources and information skills that will help in preparing course assignments and writing research papers. They cover topics such as searching the library catalogue, finding course materials on reserve, and locating articles and other materials via databases such as ERIC, PsycINFO, Education Full Text, and others. Workshops on EndNote and other citation management programs provide help on how to easily create in-text citations, notes, and reference lists.

The Education Library provides computers for student use, tables and carrels to connect laptops, wireless access, as well as photocopiers, printers, and scanners. You may select to work in the quiet study area, in one of several group study spaces, or just relax on a comfortable reading chair.

Lending Services for laptops, digital still and video cameras, digital audio recorders, and tripods are now handled by the Education Library. These services are available during regular Library operating hours.

Visit the Education Library website to learn more about library loans, hours, reserve readings, and links to important education sites. We look forward to seeing you in the Library.
