Welcome to the Robertson Library
The Robertson Library is an active partner in, and integral to, the University’s teaching, learning, and research mission. We enrich this mission in our communities by providing the expertise, instruction, and infrastructure needed to ensure the sustainable and reliable discoverability of scholarly publications and other information resources that contribute to the creation, dissemination, and stewardship of knowledge, education, and research at the University. The Library’s work is grounded in collaborative partnerships, robust systems, and high-quality collections, made accessible through inclusive on-campus and online spaces.
Our priorities include Teaching, Learning, and Research; Collaborative Partnerships; and Sustainability and Revitalization.
We collaborate with campus partners like IT Systems and Services, the Teaching and Learning Centre, the Writing Centre, Registrar's Office and Student Services and other units to support teaching, learning, and research at UPEI. Our services and resources support access to diverse and comprehensive information resources, improving and enhancing information and digital literacy on campus, stewards of UPEI's scholarly research and datasets, knowledge synthesis, open access publication, open education resources, research data management, university archives and special collections, laptop and other technology lending, digital spaces that provide access to unique collections and exhibits and spaces within the library for individual and group study and teaching. We are mindful of the colonial role libraries have played and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action.
The Robertson Library has many collaborations within Prince Edward Island and we participate regionally in the Council of Atlantic Academic Libraries and nationally in the Canadian Research Knowledge Network.
I encourage you to explore our services and our physical and digital spaces.
