MDL's space is getting a refresh!

Beginning May 1, 2024, the 5th floor of Robarts will be under renovation. Please note the following changes to our services:

  • No physical access to the 5th floor starting May 1
  • MDL services will be available virtually and by appointment on the 7th floor of Robarts. Please contact us for assistance. No drop-in access will be available in our temporary location on the 7th floor.
  • The MDL computer lab has moved to the 4th floor electronic classroom (located within the CTSI space). MDL software is available on 20 of the 40 computers in the 4th floor electronic classroom. Look for computers with MDW on the desktop for advanced GIS and stats software. The electronic classroom is available whenever Robarts is open, as long as the room isn't booked for a class. How to find the 4th floor electronic classroom.
  • MDL print collections (paper maps, atlases & books) are accessible by request only. Please fill out the retrieval request form. Please note that certain atlases & books may not be able to be retrieved - we'll do our best, but cannot make any promises.
  • The Temp drive (K:\ drive) is gone. No temp drive is available in the 4th floor electronic classroom.

More details will be provided on this page when they are available. 

The new MDL 5th floor space is expected to reopen in early-mid 2025!
