Let’s kick off 2026 with the library spotlighting what’s new and what’s on the horizon in research and digital initiatives. Whether you’re a long-time digital scholar or just beginning to explore what’s possible, we hope you’ll find something here that inspires you and sparks your curiosity. There’s a lot happening at the library.
Eating out? What’s something integral to the experience? A menu. Picking up your takeout? What’s in the bag? A menu. What’s that next to the cash register at the food court? Menus.
In addition to being an important part of restaurants, menus can also be significant research resources. Whether you are looking into the culinary history of a cuisine, the makeup of a community during a specific era, or even just tracing immigration history, menus tell a story that transcends academic disciplines.
The U of T Scarborough Library is pleased to announce an open call for the third cohort of the UTSC Library Storytelling Fellowship under the mentorship of Anthropologist Dr. Brenda Beck. This award is open to full-time U of T students (U of T Scarborough students will receive priority access) past their first year of study. Full details are below.
