About the library

The John W. Graham Library serves Trinity's undergraduate Arts and Science students, the graduate Divinity students and faculty of Trinity and Wycliffe Colleges, Trinity and Wycliffe alumni/ae, and the greater University of Toronto and Anglican Church communities. Our collections are also open to the public for use in the library. 

Collection strengths

Subject strengths reflect the academic programs and interests of the two colleges: e.g., international relations, ethics, literature in English, philosophy, theology, Anglican Church history, and biblical studies.

Rare and Special Collections include: SPCK Collection, Strachan Collection, Churchill Collection, Richard Hooker Collection, Upjohn-Waldie Collection, and the G8 Collection.
