OISE/UT Library
Tour of the Library Catalogue

U of T and OISE students are allowed access to literally thousands of online journals. Many of these are full text journals, meaning that you can read and download complete articles. This is useful for all students, but especially students who do not have ready access to a university library.

The Library changed the way it handles access to its online restricted resources on May 20 2003. If you have been using a proxy server account, you will need to change to the new system. You can read about the service, my.access, at:

Web sites useful for OISE/UT students generally:

Writing at the University of Toronto   A writing help site: If you are just coming back to school after being away from formal studies for a period of time; if you are getting close to having to do an MRP for your Masters degree; if you are going to be doing a QRP for entrance to a doctoral program, or; if you are a doctoral student preparing to undertake your thesis: then this site can be very useful for you.

This is what the page says it is for and what it does:

The University of Toronto expects its students to write well, and it provides a number of resources to help them.

To find what you need, start with our page of Frequently Asked Questions, investigate writing centres and writing courses, look at our advice files, and read the latest announcements about writing support programs.

It then provides a number of links to useful sites and information. While I realize that the courses are not of any use to students who live away from Toronto, much of the other information is very useful.
