Grodon B. In surfing for something for my last post I came across something about a farewell 'party' (?) for Roch Carrier but as it was not what I was looking for I paid little attention to it. Unfortunately since receiving your message I have been unable to find it again. If I manage to find it I will post the information to the list. Happy Hunting.

Although the Government Electronic Directory Services (GEDS) < http://direct.srv.gc.ca/cgi-bin/direct500/BE#TOP > has no record of Roch Carrier the National Librarian (Has he retired?), it shows that Mr. Wilson's title and coordinates are as follows: Ian E Wilson Librarian and Archivist of Canada Library and Archives Canada OFFICE OF THE LIBRARIAN AND ARCHIVIST OF CANADA 395 Wellington Street Ottawa, Ontario Canada K1A 0N4 Telephone: (613) 992-2473 Fax: (613) 992-9010 Internet: Ian.Wilson@lac-bac.gc.ca -----Original Message----- From: Robber [mailto:robber@rogers.com] Sent: July 7, 2004 8:29 PM To: CANADA-CENSUS-CAMPAIGN-L@rootsweb.com Subject: RE: [CCC] Post 1901 Census - New questions Hello again, Jeff's authoritative answer makes me doubt my earlier post! But the new legislation created the "Library and Archives of Canada" under the "Librarian and Archivist of Canada". The institution, however, is using a shorter form of the name, dropping "of" to be known as "Library and Archives Canada". Check out their new web site www.collectionscanada.ca. I had understood that Ian Wilson was appointed Librarian and Archivist on 21 June when the Act came into effect, unless Jeff knows something I don't? Cheers, Rob <snip>
