Library Collection 1897 to present

The mission of the Dentistry Library is to deliver customer-focused information, services and programs to support the Faculty of Dentistry’s teaching, learning, research and clinical activities.

As Canada's oldest Dentistry Library, our collection covers dentistry and its related subdisciplines. The items are searchable via the University of Toronto Libraries' catalogue. The collection developed greatly from the print at its beginnings (1897) to a combination of print and online resouces comprising of books, journals, reference materials, research guides, and webpages to support the everchanging needs of the modern dental researcher. Here you will find information on the history of some of these special collections that make up the overall variety of formats supporting our current curriculum and research needs of the Faculty.
