Among the many ways to provide feedback this fall are attending a virtual town hall and completing an online survey.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

As instructors select course materials for the upcoming academic year, McMaster University Libraries offer services and support to help make course materials more affordable for students. 

The libraries provide flexible options to align with course goals, including eReserves, open educational resources (OER), and expanded access to required texts.

This work builds on the libraries’ long-standing efforts to develop tools and services that improve student learning outcomes.

As health care grows more complex, McMaster University’s Integrated Rehabilitation and Humanities program is equipping students with the critical thinking skills needed for evidence-informed practice.

Run by the Faculty of Health Sciences, the new program brings together students from a range of disciplines to study the intersection of health, rehabilitation, and humanities. The program focuses on the art and science of health and well-being while helping students explore the deeper reasons behind patient care.

Construction set for this spring and summer will temporarily impact library patron access to some areas of Mills Memorial Library.

The project includes the replacement of the windows and façade due to age and condition on the southeast sides of Mills Memorial Library. 

The library will remain open during this time. However, noise from construction is expected. 

Work is set to begin April 23 (the day after the end of the exam period) and anticipated to be concluded by the end of August, with the possibility of extending into September if needed.
