When projects and papers start to come due, the semester can get busy fast. Before you let the stress take over, check out these resources on campus that will help you meet deadlines and ace those projects.

1. The John L. Haar Library

The John L. Haar Library has a wealth of resources to help you ace your next paper. Borrow textbooks and course resources, access online journal databases and learn how to properly cite sources for whichever style guide your course requires.

The Library also has quiet study spaces, bookable rooms for working on group projects, and it’s home to subject librarians, the Writing Centre and the MakerSpace – more on those below!

2. Subject librarians

Subject librarians specialize in specific subjects and know exactly what the library has to offer in those topics. They can help you find the right books and articles to properly support your arguments and ease the research process for your papers. Book an appointment to meet with a subject librarian to learn more.

3. The Writing Centre

Whether you’re writing your first university assignment or your last, the Writing Centre is here to support you through the process. Register for an in-person or online writing consultation, submit your work for written feedback, or learn about scholarly genres and practices from a resource or workshop.

4. Math & Stats Learning Centre

First- and second-year students can head to the Math & Stats Learning Centre for help with their coursework. Faculty and senior students are on hand to help you understand concepts and equations you might be struggling with. Check their site for drop-in times; no appointment necessary!

5. MakerSpace

Some projects require more than just words or numbers on paper. The MakerSpace, located in the Library, has free resources and equipment for all students to use. Learn coding and multimedia skills, access 3D printers, use sewing machines and vinyl cutters to make custom fashion creations, and more!

6. Access and Disability Resources

If you have accessibility issues, coursework can be difficult regardless of your program. Access and Disability Resources (ADR) will meet with you for a one-on-one assessment and ensure that you’re properly equipped to get the most out of your time in the classroom. For everything from neurological conditions to a broken arm, ADR can help accommodate your needs. Reach out early to ensure that the proper supports are put in place ahead of the start of term.
