The Canadian Museum for Human Rights (CMHR) and the Library & Archives Canada (LAC) signed a memorandum of understanding yesterday in Ottawa. The partnership expects to increase opportunities for visitors and scholars alike to develop research initiatives, promote dialogue, and enhance access to Canada’s human rights history. I have not located a copy of the memorandum and the details of exactly which LAC collections or resources will be loaned out to the CMHR remain to be determined, but I am sure we will see more news out of this partnership agreement in the coming weeks.
