ARCHIVES
OF ONTARIO LIBRARY
New Archives of Ontario Microfilm Interloan
Catalogue
The Archives of Ontario is pleased to
announce the release of the updated microfilm interloan catalogue.
Unlike earlier catalogues, the new catalogue is online, educational
and interactive. Those familiar with their previous catalogues will
notice that not all of the interloan microfilm is currently listed.
Rather than delaying the release of the catalogue they wanted to
ensure that their most popular holdings (including Ontario Vital
Statistics) were up to date and available now. They will be updating
the catalogue regularly as well as adding new microfilm to their
interloan holdings in the coming months.
You will find them
at http://www.archives.gov.on.ca/
The main Interloan English page is
http://www.archives.gov.on.ca/english/interloan/index.html
The main Interloan French page is
http://www.archives.gov.on.ca/french/interloan/index.html
Important Note: The Microfilm Interloan Service allows you
to borrow microfilmed archival records through a library or other
institution that participates in the interlibrary loan system. Ask
your local library about their interlibrary loan policies.
Researchers cannot order the microfilm directly from the Archives you
must go through your local library.
Can we suggest that you
may wish to consider joining FRIENDS of the ARCHIVES of ONTARIO? The
time and opportunity has come for us, as individuals, to assist the
Archives in carrying on with tradition of preserving the evidence of
our provincial history; to show our support for and increase the
awareness of the Archives of Ontario; and to acknowledge the
important role it plays in preserving our history. With your
membership you will receive their newsletter FRIENDS OF THE ARCHIVES
OF ONTARIO. The paper will be published four times a year and will be
filled with informative reading.
Membership fees are:
$25.00
for an individual,
$40.00 per family and
$15.00 for the over
sixty individual.
