Abstract

This article focuses on University of Ottawa Morisset Library. Anyone may access the collection at our University. The collection's main purpose is to serve the academic community in supporting research. Scholars and students from Ontario, Western and Atlantic provinces, and graduate students from Quebec have full borrowing privileges. Students and faculty from the United States also have certain borrowing privileges. However, we also provide interlibrary loan, and an open stack policy for everyone. The Slavic collection at the University of Ottawa has supported Slavic literary studies since the 1950s. Because the Department conducted teaching and research at the doctoral level, the research collection representing Russian, Polish, and Ukrainian literatures grew in number and now consists of approximately 29,000 monograph and periodical entries. To support literary studies the collection also includes documents on language, history, culture, and art of these three countries. Since 1995, only Russian and Polish literatures have been actively taught in the Department at the BA level.
