Removing pins, clips and staples (260 kg of metal!), as well as adhesive, to prepare all 622,290 files of the Canadian Expeditionary Force ready for digitization took 18 months alone!

There’s a decades-old rumour about a ghost that haunts the third basement (3B) at the National Library of Canada, 395 Wellington Street, Ottawa.There are varied claims that it’s one political figure or another. Although many who may have seen it have retired, it’s thought that our ghost shared space with the COPS collection (Canadian Official Publications) of federal, provincial and municipal government publications. Perhaps reading lists are, indeed, eternal? #Halloween #LibraryMonth | Library

For many kids and parents across Canada, the holiday season meant that the “Sears Wish Book” was coming! First introduced in the United States by Sears in 1933, the “Wish Book” made its first appearance in Canada in 1953 with the opening of the first Canadian Sears store in Stratford, Ontario.

William Lyon Mackenzie King (1874–1950) was Prime Minister of Canada for 22 years—from 1921 to 1930 (except for a few months in 1926), and from 1935 to 1948. His political prowess helped him to preserve the unity of the country and his party, when both were threatened during his mandate by some of the most dramatic times in Canadian history, including the Depression of the 1930s and the Second World War. He was an extremely skilled politician, but in his private life, he was a man with unique, a
