The [http://www.nlc-bnc.ca/index-e.html Library and Archives Canada] provides access to the catalogue for the National Library and 1,300 other libraries in Canada. Among other things, it has copies of most of the published marriage indexes for Canada. The [http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/genealogy/Pages/introduction.aspx Genealogy and Family History] page provides detailed guidance for searching the databases. For example, microfilmed birth, marriage, and death records can be located by following the these steps: Select the "Consult Databases" link in the "What You Can Do" section; then the "Births, Marriages and Deaths Recorded in Canada" link; and finally the "Search Database" link. Microfilm containing the records thus identified can be borrowed through inter-library loan. | |||

Library and Archives Canada holds only a small collection of parish registers, none of which are comprehensive for any region. Most are transcripts rather than originals, available on microfilm and listed in our ''Checklist of Parish Registers (ISBN 0660538636).'' Due to the heavy volume of inquiries we receive, we are unable to conduct searches in parish registers. | |||
