Fresh off the heels of a successful campaign exploring diversity, equity and inclusion, the team behind the LinkedIn Learning Club @ McMaster is launching a new campaign on leadership development.

Throughout July, McMaster students will have access to a free collection of videos on topics from inclusive leadership and building relationships, to communicating with influence and leading change.

This month’s campaign was crafted by Eline Gonzalez, a fourth-year bachelor of science student and LinkedIn Learning ambassador.

Five McMaster University faculty members are receiving grants to support four projects that will foster the creation and integration of free, high-quality online textbooks and other digital educational materials.

After years of planning and preparation, a new library services platform is now live at McMaster University Libraries.

The new library catalogue is expected to better meet the needs of McMaster’s academic community thanks, in part, to a search tool called Omni which is now in use at 18 university libraries across Ontario.

Canadian music legend, famed storyteller, and visual artist Tom Wilson is ensuring his work will be accessible for generations to come.

Wilson has donated his archive to the William Ready Division of Archives and Research Collections at McMaster University Library.

“I was not able to go to university, so the fact my archive is now at McMaster is pretty amazing,” said Wilson. “I sometimes joke that I made this gift because my basement is too full. It’s humbling, to be sure, to have McMaster serve as the home of my archive.”
