Customized library research modules
OISE librarians have created library research modules for each department at OISE. The modules are designed to support self-directed learning on the fundamentals of library searching as well as specific databases and resources customized to the different research areas in each of OISE's four departments. These modules are hosted in Quercus on a self-enroll basis.

- Library Resources for Leadership, Higher and Adult Education (LHAE)
- Library Resources for Social Justice Education (SJE)
