Quick Facts about Access
Reading Room Policies
Unlike library books, archival records are often one-of-a-kind materials. They cannot be replaced if they are lost or damaged. Consequently, we have some rules to keep our materials safe.
Accessibility Services
The OCAD U Archives is committed to providing equitable access to services and collections for all students, faculty and staff at the University. Please speak to us about alternative access to facilities and/or services - we are often able to make resources available in alternate format**
**While archives, rare books, and special collections materials are exempt from the AODA requirements of the IASR, the Archives will strive to provide alternative formats services to students, faculty, and staff within the parameters of its capacity and resources.
