Scope and content
The building of the Woodward Library was made possible by a gift from the P.A. Woodward Foundation. Opened in 1964, it served as the new home of the Biomedical Library, established in 1957 in the Faculty of Medicine's Wesbrook Building after operating as a reading room since 1950. The Woodward Library maintains specialized research materials for the Faculties of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, the School of Nursing, and the various biological science programmes.
The sous-fonds primarily consists of records generated during the planning, construction, and initial operation of the Woodward Library and includes correspondence, reports, and architectural drawings. It also contains materials related to various committees and funds that the head librarian of Woodward Library chaired in the 1990s, including minutes, correspondence, financial documents, and memoranda.
