Academic library
cademic libraries were very small until the 1950s, when Canadian academic libraries began to grow when people started to think education and research was more important. In the 1960s, academic libraries grew a lot because of universities have more students, having more money, and people starting to admire libraries. The Ontario New Universities Library Project started in the 1960s, and many libraries got extra money from the Canada Council and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, because they wanted to make the library's collections bigger.
