Queen’s University Library gets an A

Posted: October 23rd, 2012

In the Globe and Mail’s Canadian University Report for 2013, distributed with Tuesday’s paper and also available online, Queen’s University Library has once again received an A grade – the only medium-sized university library to achieve that ranking.  Queen’s Library has consistently received high grades in the report over the years.

University Librarian Martha Whitehead cites a number of factors that contribute to the high regard for Queen’s Library.  These include the exceptional services provided by Library staff in supporting students to achieve academically, the depth and breadth of the Library’s collections, and welcoming Library spaces across campus where students gather to study, learn and collaborate with their peers.  “The Library is integral to student success and to campus life,” states Ms. Whitehead.  “The A grade in this year’s Canadian University Report is a tribute to the dedicated people who ensure the Library provides the services and resources our students need.”
