The addition of 80 new directories to our growing database brings a total of 95 searchable directories to the site. With this phase, we have focused upon the regions of Ottawa, Halifax and environs; these regions were selected to complement the digital initiatives of our colleagues across the nation, including Bibliothèque nationale de Québec and Our Roots: Canada's Local Histories Online. In addition, we've introduced a new section entitled CityScapes, which offers a brief historical overview of the cities whose directories have been digitized. You are invited to visit the site at: www.collectionscanada.ca/canadiandirectories For more information, please contact Project Manager Susan Globensky at 992-2520, webservices@lac-bac.gc.ca .
