Regis College

Regis College is a theological education building located at 100 Wellesley Street West in Old Toronto. The facility houses an extensive library with reading areas, computer workstations, and specialized collections focused on Christian theology, ethics, and religious spirituality for academic study and research.

The college was founded in 1930 as a Jesuit philosophy school and later expanded to include theology programs. A major move to the current Wellesley Street location in 2008 marked the expansion and modernization of the institution.

The library here reflects Jesuit teaching traditions and shows how religious communities preserve knowledge about faith and ethics through their collections. Visitors can see shelves filled with materials in multiple languages that demonstrate how theology remains actively taught and studied within this space.

The building is primarily designed for academic users, though some areas welcome visitors during certain hours. It is best to check in advance about access possibilities, as most facilities operate on a weekday schedule and guided visits should be arranged ahead of time.

The Lonergan Research Institute on the second floor holds a specialized collection documenting the work of a major modern thinker from the Jesuit tradition. Much of this collection has been digitized and remains accessible through various research tools and formats.
