Along with the great articles on Innis, a particularly helpful Innis text is his book The Bias of Communication. There are several copies available at the Burnaby library. Check out the essay within it entited "Minerva's Owl" if you're interested in his theories of communication affecting society - particularly if you don't understand it very well, want to read an original text, or are considering featuring Innis for your research paper.
A hallmark overview of McLuhan's theories (containing his own description of hot and cool media) is his interview with Playboy magazine. Here's the link: http://www.nextnature.net/?p=1025
