Join us for an opening reception for FOTO25 on Thursday, May 22!

FOTO25, part of CONTACT photography festival, is an outdoor photography exhibition now open in the Lakeshore Campus quad.

This exhibition showcases photographic works produced by Humber Polytechnic’s 2025 final semester Photography Diploma students. The program provides two years of hands-on training in photo and video, ensuring grads are industry ready for many pathways. Students’ portfolios showcase their creativity and technical know-how along with their personal photographic journey. These images explore a wide variety of genres in visual communications, with work created both in studio and on location. For this exhibition, students were encouraged to explore an outdoor theme, embracing elements of nature or landscape.

The opening reception will take place on Thursday, May 22 in L1017 from 4-8 p.m., with remarks at 6 p.m.

Humber & University of Guelph-Humber Library (Library) is working on a new Library Vision & Action Plan, and we want to hear from you. What do you want your Library experience to look like and feel like? What role do you see the Library playing in Humber’s, UofGH’s, and your success?

Help us create the North Star that will guide the Library’s future by joining us at one or all of our three consultation sessions:

1. Resources & Curriculum Support: The Library plays a critical role in the provision of resources to support learning and development. How might that role evolve and better support your learning and development needs?
   Join the virtual discussion on May 20 from 1 to 2 p.m.
    
2. Technological Innovations: Traditionally libraries have been associated with physical spaces and books. Today, they are much, much more, offering virtual access, digital resources, makerspaces, that link students and staff to new technologies and foster digital fluency and employability skills. How do you see the Library’s role in leveraging new technologies in higher education? How might the Library use technology to improve access to its resources and services? 
   Join the virtual discussion on May 12 from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.
    
3. Partnership Innovations: The Library works collaboratively across Humber Polytechnic and the University of Guelph-Humber to provide a wide variety of services and supports to Faculties and departments. How might the Library’s role evolve to facilitate cross-disciplinary knowledge exchange and strengthen the work of faculties/departments?
   Join the virtual discussion on May 14 from 12 to 1 p.m.

Can’t make the session but want to share your thoughts? Look out for an online form that we will circulate in Communiqué.

Thank you for building our future with us. Your suggestions will help Humber refine our role and current practices and develop new initiatives.
