Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | In 2013 LAC and Canadiana made a 10-year commitment to digitize, index and describe millions of personal, administrative and government documents, including land grants, war diaries and photographs, in the Héritage Project. For more information about the collections see their website. These digital images will be available online free-of-charge as they are created and will include documents from the 1600s to mid-1900s. However, Canadiana.org will also create an optional premium site with an enhanced search facility. This will allow name and keyword searches of transcriptions of millions of handwritten pages, and related descriptions. These search tools will be available to Canadians free of charge at LAC and subscribing libraries across Canada. Or, for a small monthly fee, Canadians will also be able to use these enhanced tools online at home. All revenue will go into the digitization project (remember Canadiana.org is a non-profit and charitable organization). |
