The Robertson Library is the major research library for Prince Edward Island. It was opened in January 1975, replacing the former Kelley Memorial Library which included collections from the former Prince of Wales College and Saint Dunstan’s University.
Robertson Library provides a variety of print and electronic resources to support the curriculum and research needs of students and faculty at the University of Prince Edward Island (UPE I). The Library also offers reference and research assistance and information literacy classes. Resources are available to UPEI users both on-site and off-campus.
Special features of the Library include a specialized PEI Collection, a Learning Commons, a Language Laboratory, and Media Collaboratory. Initiatives include the development of a virtual research environment (VRE), the IslandScholar repository of faculty publications, and digitization projects, such as IslandLives (books), IslandImagined (maps), and IslandVoices (oral history).
The entire Island community is welcome to make use of the Robertson Library and its resources.
