Reference staff will help users find the information they need by:
- searching in the collection
- referring users to other sources of expertise within Statistics
Canada and outside
- providing orientation to the Library's collection and facilities
Please use the Reference form to send us your requests. We can also
be contacted at (613) 951-8219 or by email at biblionet@statcan.ca. The Library
will refer some requests for Statistics Canada data to the Statistics
Canada Regional Reference Centre at (613) 951-8116 or 1-800-263-1136,
or where applicable, to subject-matter divisions.
The Library operates in the context of a network of federal and research
libraries in Canada, and maintains its position in this cooperative
environment by responding to enquiries for statistical information
from other libraries or their clients on a cost-recovery basis. Charging
for library services was introduced in July 1995 and a schedule of
fees is in effect for non Statistics Canada clients. User guidance
is provided without charge.
The Statistics Canada Library and Information Centre has built
its collection to be a national resource in statistics. It includes
material from many countries and international organizations.
The Library is pleased to share these resources. Only requests
submitted through libraries will be accepted.
