Visit Digitized Archives Online Coming Soon: New Library Search InterfaceThe Archives at St. Michael’s Hospital are excited to announce
80 newsletters from the Alumnae of St. Michael's School of Nursing have been digitized! We invite you to experience the
collection for yourself and share the collection with colleagues, family, or friends who might enjoy this historical content. These
newsletters are filled with a wealth of information relating to the nursing graduates and Canadian nursing and healthcare
history. Visit the collection here: bit.ly/smharchive. If you have any questions about the collection, please reach out to our
archivist Teruko.Kishibe@unityhealth.ca
After a year of gathering data, conducting thorough analysis, and negotiating with
vendors and publishers, Library Services has reached the final steps in collection
harmonization across Unity Health Toronto! Throughout January 2021, each site will gain
access to significantly more resources, and will see greater equity of access to core
resources for all staff and physicians. Check out the NEW resources coming to each site
below; also, refer to the graphics to appreciate collection percentage growth at each site
resulting from this harmonization work

Library Services is excited to introduce a new web interface that will allow users to search all library material, both print and
electronic, across all three Unity Health Toronto sites. This new search experience will significantly enhance the discoverability of
library material and simplify access to resources. It will also enable users to request library print materials (e.g. books) from other sites to be delivered to them at their primary site location.
In addition to these features, users will also have the ability to sign-in to a personal account to place holds, view check-outs, and save materials. Stay tuned for this exciting new search interface
in early 2021
