Resources

Want information on current grassroots movements? Need alternative resources for your term paper? THEN CHECK OUT THE OPIRG RESOURCE LIBRARY! OPIRG McMaster established an ALTERNATIVE RESOURCE CENTRE in order to provide the McMaster and surrounding Hamilton community with access to materials (including videos, books, journals, pamphlets, etc.) that explore current issues regarding social and political justice, environmentalism, animal and human rights, and more. These resources may not be otherwise available at traditional resource locations.
