What is it that makes Hart House Library so unique from the other libraries on campus?

The Hart House Library is a non-circulating, special library. It is a library of discovery!

Truly an organic space, the library is a living institution which grows and adapts to the ever-changing needs of our dedicated multi-demographic patrons. And our library is certainly one of historical and cultural character.

Hart House Library is run by volunteers and overseen by the Literary and Library Committee, which strives for the library as an inclusive space. The Committee ensures that the special collection of literature is relevant to the library’s evolving interest and seeks to build a stronger literary community at the University of Toronto.

The library boasts a strong Canadian flavour and this is reflected through a Canadiana section, in addition to both Canadian Fiction and Canadian Poetry.
