Education

The Education collection and related services are located on Queen's University's West Campus in McArthur Hall. The collection includes books for children & teens, teacher resources, K-12 school textbooks, Ministry of Education documents, scholarly books, and a multimedia collection of videos (DVD and online video), kits, posters, puppets, big books, and more. Thousands of e-books and e-journals complement these collections.

More recently, the Education Library opened a newly renovated ground-level entrance. This space includes bookable small and large study rooms, a Teacher Prep area with our well-used Ellison die-cutting machines, and two multi-function devices that scan, copy, and print. Two teaching spaces with video projection and sound systems are also available to support library instruction.

The Education Guides offer starting points and recommended resources from our print and online collections for researchers and educators. Use them to find your way into the education-related scholarly literature or to discover curriculum-related materials for your classroom.
