Kooi Library (Sheridan College)
Information is a part of our everyday lives – in the classroom and in the real world. It is available through books, articles, web pages, e-books, videos, as well as a variety of other print and digital resources.
So how can you tell which information source best answers your personal information need and class assignment? The library staff at Kooi Library are trained to answer your research questions and are ready to help!
Our library resources, many of which are available online, have been carefully selected with your research need in mind. In addition to our vast collection of online databases including peer-reviewed scholarly journals, we also have popular fiction and non-fiction books and magazines for your reading and browsing pleasure. We encourage you to stop by, in person or online via the website, and get to know your library or chat with any one of your friendly librarians.
