Archives
Canadian Archival Research Center

Over the last few years the Canadian Archival Research Center has created an archive reproduction program concerning Canada in France.

Their offices are a part of the Canadian Documentation Centre.

One can consult the research guides, repertoires, catalogues and archived inventories on Canada, as well as numerous reference works that access useful archives both in Canada and in France.

Many CD-ROMs, prepared by the National Archives of Canada, present summaries of millions of documents.

Taking into consideration reasonable communication delays, the microfilms of documents preserved in Canada can also be consulted at the Centre.


Printouts

An encyclopedic base of works in English and/or in French of about 10,000 titles is the core of our printed documentation.

A collection of Canadian English and French literature presents a panorama of contemporary production.

Around 2,000 reference works of exclusively Canadian content are also free to access: atlases, bibliographies, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and general and special repertoires.

A selection of product publications by the Parliament and the Federal Government Minister are up-dated daily.  A few official provincial government publications are also added.

Large selections of Statistics Canada publications, that are unique to France, are accessible.

A collection of 250 periodicals, spanning from various directories to scientific journals and general information magazines, are principally aimed towards human sciences.  The complete version of many daily newspapers, such as Le Devoir and the Globe and Mail are available on microfilm.

Finally, the Documentation Centre carries numerous documents on the most requisitioned subjects.
