Building skills for the knowledge economy

 
  "KO matters to me because it provides equal access to information resources to Ontario's citizens, wherever they are and whatever their societal status. For high school students, especially, having access to quality information sources is crucial in preparing them for higher education and (eventually) a good job. KO levels the playing field so that people from any background can participate fully in a knowledge economy."

Collaborating to create provincially scaled services

By partnering with a wide variety of public and cultural organizations, Knowledge Ontario offers cost-effective and provincially scaled services that meet Ontario's information needs.
 
  "We have benefited greatly from our participation in askON and have been given access to numerous electronic resources.

Bringing information together for Ontarians

 
  "The breadth of reach and scope of content make this project either directly relevant or potentially relevant to everyone in Ontario. Knowing that such a wide variety of information for and about Ontario is being captured, and preserved, (and more importantly is more available for everyone), is a critical part of developing "knowledge." Knowledge empowers in ways we may never have been conceived. That benefits Ontario."

Ron Ward, University of Guelph		  
 
 

The power of collaboration means Knowledge Ontario harnesses quality content and makes it accessible using cutting edge portal and search technologies to serve Ontarians and all their diverse needs.
