Gifts for the libraries

In-kind gifts temporarily suspended

Due to the COVID-19 situation, UVic Libraries buildings are closed until further notice. Given these circumstances, we have suspended acceptance of donations of gifts-in-kind of print and archival materials for the Libraries circulating collections, Special Collections, and University Archives.

Please do not bring donations of gifts-in-kind to UVic Libraries or other campus locations. The University is continuing to follow the advice of the Public Health Agency of Canada and the Provincial Health Officer in this rapidly evolving situation.

Thank you for your friendship and support of UVic Libraries.

Main Collections
