Screens Guidelines

To help disseminate relevant information to library users, and in the spirit of community partnership, we support the promotion of non-library events and services that are of direct interest to our Queen’s community. For this reason, we welcome educational and creative electronic images/slides or videos from faculties/departments across Queen’s University, that would be of interest to the people who use our spaces, provided they do not interfere with library operations and the scholarly environment of an academic library.  

Queen’s University Library Strategic Plan 2022-2025

Queen’s University Library’s network of experts and its physical and digital resources, collections, and spaces, provide in-depth support for the research, teaching, and learning activities undertaken across all disciplines. The library’s long-standing presence at the center of campus life fosters academic success, promotes research excellence, and cultivates human connections with diverse forms of information and knowledge. 

The library’s activities and strategies are informed and shaped by:  

Course Reserves

The library reserve collection is composed of high-use course readings and materials selected by instructors for short-term use by students registered in courses at Queen's University. Course Reserves enables instructors and students to have one single access point for all reading materials and to support copyright compliance. 

Atrium Bookings

Overview

The Stauffer Library atrium is available for booking for instructional programing related to poster displays.  Priority use of this area is for library purposes.

Use of Spaces for Teaching

Overview

We maintain several teaching spaces to support our instructional programs. Priority use of these facilities is for library instructional purposes but, unless otherwise indicated, the computers in these spaces also are available to library patrons whenever session or meetings are not underway.

Website Redesign

To advance the institution's strategic teaching, learning, and research priorities, and accelerate the success of students, faculty, and staff, Queen’s University Library (QUL) is undertaking a project in 2023 to redesign and optimize its website.
