Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

Page Content
The Library Catalogue is no longer about resources just contained in the physical LLC space. It connects to electronic resources.
The Library Catalogue helps you search through our physical library collection, and parts of our online collection. This means when you search our Library Catalogue, your results could be in the format of books or electronic resources. You could access a book, an eBook, an online article found in a database or found in a reference eBook, or an eVideo.
Access our Library Catalogue.
Our Library Catalogue does not search through the Sora eBook Collection. Access the Sora eBook Collection.
Our Library Catalogue does not search through all our Online Resources nor can it search as rigorously through them as a database search. It, however, provides a starting point of articles and where to look next for more resources. A database search will provide more results, so one can further their research by accessing all our Research Resources - Gale Pages.
Our Library Catalogue’s online collection has an unlimited loan period, most sources can be downloaded, provide a citation and will require a password or an access code when using it at home. Access Details to Online Resources.
Our Library Catalogue’s electronic resources or online collection includes eBooks from Gale, Salem and Grey House publishers; CBC News & Reviews or Curio (eVideos); Gale in Context Databases that the YRDSB pays for as Gale in Context: Canada, Gale In Context: Environmental Studies, Gale In Context: Middle School, Gale In Context: Science in Context along with selected Gale Databases as, Gale Literature Resource Center and Health and Wellness. These databases will provide a variety of sources.
