Donations Welcome for Research Library

Why let valuable family history records and research gather dust on shelves or be packed away in boxes when it could be brought to life in the Branch’s Research Library. When downsizing your home please consider placing genealogical material or historical books in our library. Your hard work will not be lost or discarded, but will be kept safe and secure and preserved for the future in a modern library facility. All donations are acknowledged with Book Plates added to every item. Pedigrees, genealogies and family histories will be added to the searchable online Names Index finding aid to assist others to quickly find their ancestors in the library holdings. GEDCOMs can be e-mailed and hard copies can be posted to the addresses listed at the bottom of this page. Monetary donations are also welcome to help expand services and add to the collection. Canadian tax receipts are available for donations of books, other materials and monetary donations with a value of $20.00.
