I've seen reports like this from other Ontario academic librarians, but today I came out of a meeting with our budget news: $2.1 million cut to operating expenses (mostly salaries and benefits) taking library down to $17.1 m in F2026, with possibility of cuts up to 28% for the next two years. So, possible 50% reduction in operating budget over three years.
Doug Ford has really hosed higher education in Ontario.
