Jerome Library became a Canadian Depository in October, 1999. We receive weekly shipments of a variety of journals and books published by the Canadian Government.

We catalog all Canadian publications in our online catalog and most documents can be checked out of the library for two or more weeks. We also are willing to loan material to other libraries. Use OhioLINK or Interlibrary Loan to borrow Canadian materials. The Canadian Documents collection is located on the first floor and is shelved on the east wall at the back of the main government documents collection. Our small but growing collection focuses on business, environment, Great Lakes, Native Peoples, and social issues.

Canada, like the U.S., has been moving steadily into digital format and distribution. Use the tools and links below to search the Canadian agency web pages and electronic document resources.
