Dean of Libraries

Welcome from the Dean of Libraries

The Dalhousie University Libraries supports the academic mission of the university, strengthening Dalhousie's learning and research communities with our expertise, spaces, and collections. We employ a user-focused philosophy of anticipating, listening to, and responding to the needs of those we serve.

We collaborate with the Centre for Learning and Teaching, Information Technology Services, Student Affairs, and other units to collectively support learning and research at Dal. We contribute to Dalhousie initiatives in the areas of information governance, student success, open access, records management, and research data management.

We also participate in provincial, regional, and national consortial relationships, supporting initiatives such as Borrow Anywhere, Return Anywhere and One Book Nova Scotia. To learn more about the Dalhousie Libraries and their services, visit the About page. 

I invite you to experience all that the Dalhousie Libraries have to offer, and to connect with us through social media, email, or in person. We are here to support your academic success.
