Graduate Students Orientation: Library Resources

Omni is the York University Libraries (YUL) search interface. With a single search you can find books, articles, videos, maps, government documents, open access materials, and more. Omni is a collaboration between 16 partner university libraries in Ontario. The York University Libraries community can now search and borrow from YUL as well as physical resources from our partner institutions.

Omni is York University Libraries’ interlibrary loan system that allows users to request and borrow items from other libraries and collections across Ontario, Canada, and internationally. Interlibrary Loan requests are placed in Omni by selecting "Get it from another library" from an item record or by using the blank request form. You must be logged in to Omni to use this service. For York faculty, staff, and students, see Making an Omni Request. You can check the status of your request(s) in My Account.
