Constructed in 1909 as the Toronto Reference Library, this striking building was designated in 1973. Since then, it has undergone a thoughtful transformation into a vibrant student services hub. Today, it is the flagship retail location for the University of Toronto Press. The interior retains many of its original features. Explore the building and enjoy special exhibits and interactive displays.
