Would any archives people out there like to respond the attached inquiry concerning access to the Metro Toronto and National archives? Chris J.-Andersen ([log in to unmask]) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 26 May 96 21:41:19 -0400 (EDT) From: [log in to unmask] To: HOn30 Mail Car <[log in to unmask]> Subject: "The Archivist" and Archives in General <snip...> Now a question: how does a member of the general public, without academic status, gain access to the National Archives and other archives? Are search and request services available on the net for the Canadian archives? A month or two ago, there was some talk of access to the US Library of Congress on the net - is there anything similar for Canadians? Would anyone here know how I would go about getting into the Metro Toronto archives? Any information concerning procedures, fees, rules for copying materials, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
