Make a new friend to explore the libraries with through Library Link!
Welcome to the fun Library Link community – open to all students! In this social program that runs from September to April, we pair you with another student who is excited to explore the Libraries and campus life the same way as you! After all, campus is vast and we have 38 libraries at the St. George campus – best to take a buddy along for all things library and to meet a fun friend you wouldn’t normally encounter in your day to day at U of T!
All you have to do is fill in the Library Link application form to share information about yourself and what your preferences are from a match, and we will connect you both. You will be sent a monthly list of social events at the libraries to attend with your Library Link match + we have one social event for every semester to help you thrive and connect with the community. You will also be invited to register for the Library Link Kickoff Party (happening September 27) to meet other students over food, fun and games! Start your year on a high note.
