Early Canadiana Online is a virtual library of full-text historical content about Canada, including books, magazines, family and local histories, voters’ lists, Parliamentary papers, and other official publications from the 16th to the early 20th century. It's available free to all Ottawa Public Library cardholders at home via the web as well as at OPL branches.
Daniel Velarde, Canadiana.org Communications Officer, is coming to the Main Branch of the Ottawa Public Library showing how to use and get the most from this multi-faceted resource. The 90 minute session on Wednesday 24 May, 2017 starts at 6:30pm.

Joshua Taylor on US/Canadian Immigration Pathways, 1800s–1900s.
