Collection highlight: Indigenous Peoples Atlas of Canada

Image
The Canadian Geographic Indigenous Peoples Atlas of Canada is a rich tool that brings together the voices of First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities. Each section features interactive maps, text and a range of topics related to communities from coast to coast to coast. It is a valuable reference publication that can be used across disciplines. Our library has both the print and electronic versions  of the atlas.

Collection highlight: Early Canadiana Online open access in 2019

As of January 1, 2019, the Canadiana collections of archival material, government publications, periodicals, monographs, annuals, and newspapers will be free to access. This is exciting news for researchers interested in/needing to access primary historical sources including newspapers, magazines, government records before Confederation and books such as Peep at the Esquimaux , which I use in my teaching.
