County and Regional Libraries in Canada
A directory of Canada's County and Regional Libraries
Introduction
This directory of Canada's 92 county and regional libraries was compiled at The University of British Columbia School of Library, Archival, and Information Studies. (Internet: http://www.slais.ubc.ca/ ) by Dr. Ann Curry, Associate Professor, and by Alison Curtis, MLIS graduate. The data were used to support a Canada-wide survey on the implementation of Internet services in these libraries: the results of this research were presented at the 1998 Canadian Library Association Annual Conference. Financial support for this research, including the compilation of the directory, was received from the Rural and Remote Libraries Interest Group of the Canadian Library Association.
(Internet: http://www.cla.ca/about/igroups/rural.htm)
Information within the directory varies because not all directors have email or system web sites. This type of data were included, however, for those libraries which provided the information.
It is hoped that access to this directory will stimulate further research on Canada's county and regional libraries, which serve almost one-third of the nation's population and make such a valuable contribution to our rural communities.
