How to get there?

If you are coming from downtown Toronto, we recommend taking the subway towards Vaughan on the University Line, and getting out at York University station. Once outside, walk across the park towards Vari Hall (the round building), go through it, then through the Ross building, until reaching Central Square. Once there, turn left, then right. Scott Library is at the end of the hall (down the hall from Tim Horton’s and Starbucks). For reference, York University subway station is #100 on this map of Keele Campus; Central Square is #27; and Scott Library is #25.

If you are driving to campus, we recommend parking in the Arboretum Parking Garage (#80), which is accessible via Arboretum Drive, The Pond Road, and Keele Street. Once you exit the Arboretum parking garage, walk along Campus Walk and enter through the Curtis Lecture Halls (#26), around the P.O.D. snack kiosk, up a low ramp, past the Tim Horton’s coffee shop and straight through the front doors of the library.

Entrance is free. All are welcome.
