  • Details checked
  • Access confirmed

Digitised Canadian books, periodicals, government papers and archival microfilm from about 1500 to 2000.

Before you rely on itMuch of it is scanned from old microfilm, so image quality and OCR are poor in places; the Heritage archival reels are largely unindexed, meaning you browse page by page rather than search.

The main body of Canadian documentary heritage online, and free to everyone since CRKN dropped the subscription in 2019.Telebem editors
