This digital library puts nearly 1.2 million pages of Canada's printed heritage at your fingertips, from the time of the first European settlers up to the early 20th century. Produced by the nonprofit Canadian Institute for Historical Microreproductions, the site began in 1997 as a pilot project to digitize 550,000 pages from the institute's microfiche collection; these and selected other fs, including 20,000 pages detailing the history of Hudson's Bay Company, remain available for free. Members ($50 Canadian per year) can access the complete collection, which continues to grow with the planned addition of 1.25 million pages of colonial, federal and provincial government documents.
