	U of T Magazine -- University of Toronto
		UTL is conducting seminars on the use of library materials and Moore notes that once researchers are aware of what the library has to offer, they tend to lose their dependency on the search engine.
		For libraries plagued with many different ways of gaining access to their diverse collections, as UTL is, creating a single search box to retrieve a broad range of materials is an obvious step toward making research more convenient for students.
		The library system is stretching its resources to the limit to compete with the ease and scope of Google as well as preserve its traditional collections and services.

	Varsity News -- Senior librarian says Sig Sam closure bad news (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		With the recent reduction of 25 per cent of U of T's library staff, the integration of the humanities and social sciences library collection into Robarts Library is seen as a major faux pas by some members of the university's library staff.
		Robarts senior librarian Robin Healey says the move compromises U of T's claim of possessing the best academic library system in Canada.
		Moore, says Sedra, only has to make a case to him in the event the library requires more transitional funding, since the allotment is based on the report she made to U of T's Planning and Budget Committee.

		The library was officially opened in 1973 at a cost of over $40 million.

		It probably should have been named the Bissell library, but the board was in no mood to name it after the person who was primarily responsible for getting rid of the board of governors.
