The Medium's main website, featuring articles merged from 2008 onwards. Designed in 2014 by Luke Sawczak, in 2016 it won third place for best website in the Canadian Community Newspaper Awards.

After talks with The Medium's board of directors beginning in 2012/13, the UTM Library reached an agreement to digitize the back catalogue of print editions. As of now, the collection is nearly complete; a few issues are still yet to be archived, and the collection is not yet fully organized. However, by searching around you can usually find what you’re looking for.

Issuu.com is a publication website that The Medium issues for hosting and embedding digital PDFs of the weekly print edition. It appears to have been first used to accompany the 2012 website, but its catalogue has since been updated to include the earliest surviving digital PDFs in The Medium's holdings, from the start of 2008.

This secondary site is where The Medium delivers blog-style content, which is more oriented to student life. This is also the home of Humans of UTM. It has been retired for the time being.

This Tumblr-based website was arguably the first successful attempt at a dedicated blog platform for more fun articles oriented towards student life. It was originally edited by Michelle Bonsu and Safia Amin, The Medium's first two official "Blog Editors".

Designed during the first half of the 2011/12 year under the direction of Michael Di Leo and Gary Li.

This first Wordpress-based Medium website appears to have originally served as an experiment in creating a blog to which all UTM students could post, before being used as the main website.

This Wordpress-based website was an innovative attempt to diversify the magazine offerings for the original two Medium Magazine editions in spring 2010 and spring 2011, after its creation by Alain Latour, Michael Di Leo, and Matthew Filipowich. Its layout is organized around a magazine layout concept.

This appears to be The Medium's first foray into an online presence. Outdated web technologies such as plain HTML pages gradually show a movement to PHP headers, the use of a database, and some embedded Flash content by the website's apparent retirement in 2005.
