In her reply to my offer Donna Coulter mentioned she was going to check to see what the Calgary Univ. had. In these days in instant access on the net to so much information it always surprises me how little people are aware of what the good old fashioned libraries have on hand. Most major Libraries have several newspapers on file. The main Vancouver library also has the Winnipeg Free Press but is missing about 15 yrs in the sixties and seventy and does not go back as far. I find university libraries to be the best. Simon Fraser has at least 20 papers and UBC I believe has more but is very hard for me to get there. The other advantage of university libraries are much better hours usually even opened on most holidays as student most get their assignments done. It is always a good idea to check with the librarian to see what your local resources are. You will be amazed. And not just with the Newspapers but the wealth of historical and social information available. The main Vancouver branch for example has the Birth Marriage and Deaths index's for Ontario (but not divorces which is the one I need) as well as BC. I believe they also have some Canadian Censuses but as Cloverdale library has them all as well as early Hudson Bay Records and tons or other stuff that is where I would go. They have half a floor of just Canada Genealogical records. It is so good that the local LDS FHC's have their library catalogue and refer people going Canadian research there. We may have it a little better out here on the coast. Must be something in the air but genealogy is very big out here. I have heard that the Burnaby FHC does 8 times the world average of number of people using the centre and seems to be getting busier all the time. And libraries like anywhere else work on supply and demand. The point of this is you should call your local libraries and see what they have. Even if they don't have what you need they can usually bring it in on an interlibrary loan. Although they have do not have a genealogy dept. the New Westminster Library is going to bring in the Ontario Divorce Index from the Ontario Archives for me. This costs for this service vary depending on the library and where the film or book you want has to come from. I know I am off topic again but a feel it is important that people realize they often have more available to them then they think. I am a book person and have been in love with libraries since I first discovered them at seven. I think it is a shame that this wonder free service is not more widely used to it's full potential. My children laugh at me. Who else do you know with five library cards and only 1 credit card. Just one other important point speaking of free services. Most university libraries charge a fair amount for a card if you are not enrolled or on staff. However, providing you do your research there and don't take out any books you can still use them free.
