Nobody enjoys studying. It is tedious and honestly, overwhelming but it has to be done if you want that piece of paper we call a degree. Like most things, there are ways to make the experience of studying a lot more exciting: grab a friend, make a playlist, or even better, find an aesthetically pleasing library. Luckily, the University of Toronto has blessed all of its students with a diverse range of libraries. With 44 libraries, you are bound to find at least one that makes studying less torturous.
One of my personal favourite libraries on campus is Emmanuel College’s. Not only is it incredibly quiet (I’m talking absolute silence) but it is a beautiful sight to behold especially when you need motivation to finish your readings. I have no shame in admitting this but half the reason I study at this particular library is because it is Instagram worthy.
If you enjoy a place that is completely silent and aesthetically pleasing, Emmanuel College’s library is the perfect place for you. I mean, if you don’t Instagram it, did it even happen?
