Analysis of Library Innovative Service for Undergraduates in University of Toronto and Its Enlightenment to Chinese Universities

Abstract

Abstract: University libraries serve as information resources and service centers of learning, teaching
and research, which play an important role in assisting students to succeed. It is an important task for the
libraries to provide services for undergraduates in both research-oriented and teaching-oriented universities
abroad. Adopting literature review, Internet information research and field investigation as the research
methods, and taking the library of University of Toronto as an example, this paper analyzes classroom
teaching support services for undergraduates, such as allocation navigation of curriculum resources,
guidance to follow-up curriculum, course academic development; it also explores the systematic and
comprehensive scientific research support services focusing on basic skills training, professional research
navigation and academic writing guidance, which are carried out by the library in cooperation with other
departments of the school. At last, the paper discusses the enlightenment to our libraries on how to serve the
undergraduates from the aspects of strategic planning, implementation of service concept, establishment
of management system, integration of information resources, and development of intelligent service
system.

Key words: University library, Undergraduate, Teaching support, Research support
