Over the break, we learned that the Great Library’s Know How blog won a Clawbie for the year 2021 in the “Best Blogs” category. We feel incredibly honoured to be recognized in this way, and want to convey our deepest thanks to those who nominated us. Congratulations to all the other winners! We also wanted to thank our readers for their patronage. We hope to continue to produce content that is valuable, informative, and fun (where possible 😉) !
Happy New Year everyone!
The Law Society is following the guidance of Ontario and is returning to a Step 2 operation. That means that, as of tomorrow, Wednesday, January 5, the Great Library will no longer be open to walk-in traffic from licensees or the public. We encourage you to continue to email and phone your questions during our operating hours: Monday-Friday, 9am – 4pm.
You can still order document delivery from wherever you practice and we will attempt to fill your requests from our electronic and print collections. We will have a skeleton staff in the library to maintain the collection and fulfill print collection orders.
Keep an eye on this blog or our Twitter account for information about when we will reopen. As with our reopening in November, we will reopen when the Law Society reopens.
We appreciate your patience with this shift in service and hope that it will not last too long.
As the Holidays quickly approach, we wanted to outline the Great Library’s hours of service for the remainder of the year.
The Great Library will be closed from December 24-28 and Dec 31-Jan 3. We will be open the two days between these closures, Dec 29 & 30:
