The Church has only one archival repository for this purpose. Established in 1973, The Presbyterian Church in Canada Archives represents the work of the Continuing Presbyterian Church and holds a collection, which dates from 1794 to the present. An automated environment with several databases allows efficient access into the collections we manage. Our personal papers collections are unofficial records of the Church yet add an important human element to the official records. These records may take the format of bound volumes, annual reports, microfilm, file folders, diaries, scrapbooks or typescripts.
Parking is plentiful and free.
Church community, students, musicians, socialists, historians, media, genealogists, ministers, missionaries, journalists, architects, photographers, graphic designers, teachers, lawyers, and government. All are welcome to visit the Archives but an appointment is recommended to ensure that an archivist will be available to assist you. We house all original documents in acid-free containers to protect and maintain their physical condition. It is the task of the archivist to balance preservation of a document and access to information. Although in most cases, copying is allowing there may be the occasion that because of fragility or restrictions on use because of confidentiality a research is not able to copy select records.
