Le Service de documentation du Moyen-Nord Québecois a débuté ses activitiés en juin 1977 à l'Université du Québec à Chicoutimi. La collection de base était constituée des documents du "Fichier Moyen-Nord" du Conseil Regional de Développment, région Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean-Chibougamau (region 02) et regroupait environ 500 rapports divers non-publiés. Depuis 1983, ce service est integré dans la Bibliothèque Paul-Émile-Boulet de I'UQAC.

Le Service de documentation du Centre de recherche du Moyen-Nord se spécialise dans l'acquisition et l'échange d'informations relatives au Moyen-Nord québecois, que nous définissons, pour des raisons pratiques, comme le territoire compris entre les 49 et 58 parallèles.

Le Service se concentre sur le document généralement difficile d'accès tel que les rapports, enquêtes, comptes rendus de colloques, documents publics d'organes gouvernementaux et de compagnies privées, textes de conférences, thèses, etc. Ces documents ne se retrouvent qu'irregulièrement dans les bibliographies spécialisées. La collection sur le Moyen-Nord québecois est constituée de documents commerciaux (monographs, cartes..) repérables sur la banque de données Badaduq et de documents "gris", de documents difficiles d'accès ou non commercialisés, d'articles de périodiques, de cartes non autonomes repérables sur la banque locale DOMYNO.

History of Library: The library was founded in the spring of 1978, largely through the efforts of Ms. Nora Corley Murchison, the former long-time Chief Librarian of the Arctic Institute of North America. It is primarily an open-stack reference library with a vertical file specializing in research of the Churchill Region.

DESCRIPTION OF POLAR COLLECTION: Languages: primarily English

Subjects: limnology, climatology, geography*, geomorphology, biology*, botany*, anthropology*, ornithology*, entomology, ecology, geology*, oceanography, surveying, pipeline technology*, (Polar Gas reports). (*Indicates more complete collections.)

The library was established in 1982 as part of the Northwest Territories Archives, its responsibility being the collection of published materials relevant to the history of the Northwest Territories. Because of its significant association through service to the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre, essentially the territorial museum, the library has come to be recognized as a divisional facility collecting equally in the various areas of cultural management and history of the NWT.

Human history of the NWT, including but not limited to: archaeology, both historic and prehistoric; ethnography of northern native cultures including linguistic studies; arctic exploration including North Polar exploration; fur trade; whaling; missions and missionaries; observations and reminiscences of persons living and/or travelling in the NWT; transportation, particularly those forms that are unique and/or exceptionally important to the north; works about art created by territorial residents, or in which aspects of the NWT are the subjects; works of fiction, poetry or drama written by the territorial residents, or in which the NWT figures. The library houses a fine collection of rare books most of which are nineteenth century works relating to northern exploration. Northern collections once belonging to Admiral Sir Leopold M'Clintock and Rear-Admiral Noel Wright are amongst these.

The Departmental Library was formally established in 1973 with the amalgamation of the Water Management, Canadian Forestry Service and Canadian Wildlife Service collections.

Northern materials are scattered in the general collection.

Languages: English and French

Geographic area: Arctic and cold regions, the Canadian North.

Subject specialization: Arctic research, northern development, social and economic impacts, environmental impact analysis, ecology, environmental management, forestry, land use and management, pollution, water resources, wildlife research and management.

History of Library: In 1966, the Fisheries Research Board of Canada founded the Freshwater Institute (FWI) in Winnipeg. The Institute is located adjacent to the Fort Garry Campus of the University of Manitoba. The FWI library has evolved to become the regional library for the Central and Arctic Region of Fisheries & Oceans Canada. This region encompasses the central part of Canada's geographic area (Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta) and Canada's northern territories (Northwest Territories and Nunavut). Primary users of the library's collection and services are the departmental science researchers and aquatic habitat management biologists of the region, as well as the University of Manitoba community, other government departments and consulting companies. The collection covers most aspects of freshwater ecology and a wide range of Arctic marine topics, including marine mammals. The library's inventory is included in the WAVES database, a cooperative catalogue of the departmental libraries in Fisheries and Oceans Canada. The Central & Arctic Regional Library has developed one of the best working collections of material in its subject area in North America, and carries a large number of unique reports especially as they relate to the aquatic ecosystems of the region's geographic responsibilities.

Languages: Most monographs and serials held are in English. Other languages - French, German, Russian, Japanese, etc.

Size of Polar Collection: Books: 25,000; Periodical titles: 200; Pamphlets and Reprints: ; Microfiche:5000

Additional Internet resources: The WAVES catalogue is available at: http://inter01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/waves2/index2.html?__SID=1727876c4756be3007ff2169ce21657f&__LANG=en. Most post-1998 published departmental reports are full-text accessible from a link in their WAVES catalogue record.

DESCRIPTION OF POLAR COLLECTION: Geographic Area: Western Arctic (from Hudson Bay West)

Special Strengths: Historical literature and fiction

Languages: primarily English

History of Library: The library was established in London in the 1920s to support the work of the Hudson's Bay Company Archives Department. The library was transferred to Canada with the archives in 1974. The library also includes what survives of the libraries maintained for the use of the directors and staff in London and Canada, the most important of which are the 'Fur Trade Libraries'. It is from these constituent libraries that the library's 18th and 19th-century holdings largely come.

Particular strengths of the library are the history of the Hudson's Bay Company and the fur trade, native peoples and the exploration of the Arctic and Western North America. There is no separate polar collection. Remarks under following headings deal with the library as a whole.

Languages: English; holdings in other languages not significant

The library holds a special collection known as the "Polunin Collection" which deals with the arctic.

Languages: English, French and Russian

The library is located in Inuit Tapirisat of Canada's head office in Ottawa. It is a small library which is only staffed when requested. The library is not formally organized, not due to lack of interest, but due to lack of sufficient funding. It is hoped that one day the many valuable materials in the library will be properly organized in order to extend best possible usage.

The I.T.C. library is devoted mostly to the areas of: Northwest Territories, Northern Quebec, and Labrador. Most of the material is directly concerned with native affairs.

Languages: English, a few in French and some in Inuktitut.

Languages: Primarily English.

Some texts in French and a small number of holdings in the Tr'ondëk Hwëch'in (Dawson/Moosehide)dialect of the Hän language and other Yukon/Alaska/Northwest Territories First Nations languages.

A marine history reference collection of books and periodicals, the subject specialty being ships and shipping, including some naval. The area covered concentrates on the Atlantic coast and eastern Arctic areas of Canada.

Our polar books are historical accounts chiefly about searching for the Northwest Passage.

COLLECTIONS: Extensive holdings for Labrador, Newfoundland and the Canadian Eastern Arctic, much housed in the Centre for Newfoundland Studies.

Bibliography of Canadiana (1934-); The Northwest Passage 1534-1859: a catalogue of an exhibition of books and manuscripts in the Toronto Public Library (1963)

Official repository for federal government agencies. Important collections include Northern Affairs Program (1890-1977), Department of the Interior (1821-1961), Surveys and Mapping Branch (1857-1971), Indian Affairs (1677-1978), Indian Affairs and Northern Development (1867-1976), and RCMP (1868-1976). MG 29 and MG 30 contain 19th and 20th century polar records. Also holds microfilm copies of most textual records up to 1904 in the Hudson's Bay Company Archives.

Originally the Canadian Bibliographic Centre, charged with responsibilities for compiling the national bibliography, Canadiana, and developing a Canadian Union Catalogue. Extensive, theoretically comprehensive, holdings of documents relating to northern Canada published since the enactment of legal deposit under the 1953 National Library Act.

History: The development of the court library is closely linked to the development of the courts in the NWT. The Library was established in 1955 by the Honourable Mr. Justice J.H. Sissons. From 1955-1978, the court library was situated on the premises occupied by the Supreme Court but there was no library staff. With the construction of the new court house in 1978, the library facilities and services were enlarged. A separate room was set aside, and a librarian was hired as a consultant to set up and update the collection. The position was made permanent with the year, a technician was hired, and the collection was expanded. The library now occupies half of the first floor in the Courthouse.

The collection is a standard law library, containing primary and secondary Canadian legal materials. Due to our geographic location, efforts are made to collect materials on northern/native legal issues. This part of the collection is relatively small but the records have extended indexing for better retrieval.

The Government Library was established in 1973 to serve as a central library for the Government of the Northwest Territories. In September 1993, the Government Library became the Legislative Library of the Northwest Territories and was moved into the new Legislative Assembly building with a branch library remaining in its previous location to continue to serve government employees. The Legislative Library serves Members of the Legislative Assembly and their staff and employees of the Territorial government as its primary clientele. Researchers, consultants, the media and the general public are all welcome to use the library. The Legislative Library has depository status for N.W.T. government documents.

Geographic Area: primarily Northwest Territories

Languages: English with some publications, mostly government documents, in Inuktitut, Dogrib, North Slavey, South Slavey, Gwich'in and Chipewyan.

Library Catalogue: Unicorn

The library was established in 1980. It is part of the NWT Department of Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development.

The library primarily contains material related to northern natural resources. The main geographic focus is the Northwest Territories with some material from Nunavut, Yukon, Greenland, Alaska and Russia.
