Saskatchewan archive week on facebook
Museums Association of Saskatchewan - Museum Events,
Celebrate Archives Week.
Archives week will be followed by Heritage week between February 15-20 - Start at an online archival database, and also do some research before using the archives in person. Before using the archives in person check your local library, as records are categorized by subject at a library or LDS and most material is on loan.
- Archives are not categorized by subject, but by donor organization or person. Material from an archive is not on loan, photocopying can be arranged in most cases. All materials used on archive premises.
- Be aware of the hours of operation, to allow yourself time to order the records to be retrieved and to also allow yourself sufficient time for your perusal of them in the reading room. Be knowledgable about the collection mandate of each archival institution--The type or category of records that they preserve.
- An archivist has limited research time. It is best to visit the Archives personally. Specific requests may be made, though extensive searches on mere speculation take up valuable time which could be used making more resources available. Be aware of records held by the archives, which are also on microfilm at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Research Centers, such as homestead records held by provincial archives.
- Metis Scrip Records may contain additional family information in a Surname database at National Archives. It is searchable online at National Archives The Cataloguet. Archives don't file by subject but by department.
The DOS based program in Special Collections 3rd floor U of S when used in person shows the menu of names, which helps in multiple surname spellings. Whereas the online version you have to vary the spelling yourself in the search engine. Metis scrip records issued to those of part Indian ancestry as compensation for loss of traditional hunting / trapping terittory when treaties were negotiated.
