Finding Statistics and Data for your Reporting

The Library can support you in locating statistics and data to support your reporting. We have specialized databases that provide in depth information on industries and markets and books that can help you get started with using data in your writing. 

The Library can also support you in searching for geospatial data, census data, or government data. For support with the use of geospatial or statistical data, visit the Geospatial Map and Data Centre (GMDC). The Geospatial Map and Data Centre (GMDC) is located on the main floor of the Toronto Metropolitan University Library, within the Ronald D. Besse Information and Learning Commons
