This page summarises all projects under the WikiProject UTL umbrella. The projects are grouped as follows:
* '''Collections''' projects improve article content and reference using UTL material
* '''Infrastructure''' projects make it easy for readers to find relevant UTL holdings (e.g. [[Help:Archives|archives]])
* '''Community''' projects organise UTL community members to improve articles in their interest areas
You can collapse each box (grouping) for ease of reading. All projects openly and publicly benefit Wikipedia users; most projects prioritise less visible histories. Everyone is invited to join any project!
''For contributions to Wikidata, see: '''[[wikidata:Wikidata:WikiProject University of Toronto Libraries|Wikidata:WikiProject University of Toronto Libraries]]'''''
If you'd like to get involved, freely add yourself to the full list of participants in the box below the table of contents. Each project has its own subset of participants, which you can also freely add yourself to.

===Goals===
<!-- START "Participants" box -->
{{Shortcut|WP:NPOV|WP:RS}}
* Update and add new articles on histories supported by UTL collections
* Contribute up-to-date, balanced, and authoritative sources to Wikipedia
===Approach===
{{Shortcut|WP:PRIMARY|WP:SECONDARY}}
* Where chunks of notable information are missing, create new sections or articles
* Where existing narrative is comprehensive and up-to-date, add references to [[WP:VERIFY|verify content]] and connect research
** Add [[WP:SECONDARY|secondary sources]] wherever interpretation is required
** Add [[WP:PRIMARY|primary sources]] where self-evident
*** Example: 1923 Nobel Prize medal inscribed to [[Frederick Banting]] → Banting was recipient in 1923
* Rearrange media or links to prioritise article relevance, but with sensitivity to the overall focus of the page
===Key===
* {{New entry}} New page or section
* {{Increase}} Significantly expanded

We invite everyone to benefit from our digital collections and use our materials to improve Wikipedia.

== The Discovery and Early Development of Insulin ==
[[File:C. H. Best and F. G. Banting ca. 1924.png|350px|frameless|right]]
=== Notes ===
Text-based edits from this project seek to improve the balanced and verifiable representation of history surrounding the discovery and early development of insulin. All contributions draw on thorough familiarity with the digitized primary sources held by [[Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library]], and on the most authoritative and balanced secondary sources to date. Among these contextual sources is the twenty-fifth anniversary edition of Michael Bliss's ''Discovery of Insulin'' (2007; updated the 1982 publication) and numerous complementary interventions published in the ''[[Bulletin of the History of Medicine]]''.
Where Wikipedia's existing narrative is adequate and accurate to date, I enrich the bibliography to help verify the content and to provide entry points to quality sources for further research. Primary sources are contributed where self-evident. For example, a 1923 Nobel Prize medal inscribed to Frederick Banting makes self-evident the fact that the Nobel Prize was awarded to him in 1923. Where contextual interpretation is required to understand the cited material, balanced secondary sources are used to support the contribution.
I may rearrange media or links to facilitate the Wikipedia community's research needs. Most material in UTL's insulin collection is historical in nature. On topical pages which include a mix of scientific and historical overviews, rearrangement will be sensitive to the overall focus of the page.
Where chunks of notable information are missing, I create new sections/pages to expand coverage. For example, the [[Academy of Medicine of Toronto]] and the [[Connaught Laboratories]] played important institutional roles in relation to the development of insulin and more broadly, in Canadian medical history from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century.

This collection features approximately 4500 full page plates and other significant illustrations of [[Human anatomy|human anatomy]] selected from the Jason A. Hannah and Academy of Medicine collections in the history of medicine at the [[Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library]]. Each illustration has been fully indexed using [[Medical Subject Headings]] (MeSH), and techniques of illustration, artists, and engravers have been identified whenever possible. There are 95 individual titles represented, ranging in date from 1522 to 1867.
