Research Materials

research materials

One of the key purposes of a library is to provide access to resources and collections of resources to support the work and enjoyment of our patrons. In an academic library, this typically includes the usual books and journals (and articles in those journals), plus search tools to find these materials, but it includes trade magazines, news sources, government information, videos, music and other audio resources, images, data, and more. The resources in our collection are chosen from available free and for-fee products to suit the needs of Laurier students, staff, faculty, and other researchers.
