Virtually, students traverse the Web site in excess of 3 million times each year. The partnership with the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University — the Tri-University Group of Libraries (TUG) — provides access to a total of 7 million volumes including its own collection of 2.5 million. The City of Guelph is a vibrant community of over 113,000 with a lively downtown, abundant shopping opportunities, and a dynamic cultural core. Guelph is an hour’s drive from Toronto.
