Vancouver Public Library is continuing its public consultations and has a new ‘conversation kit’ regarding the collections on-line here:http://pwp.vpl.ca/freeforall/

You can follow along with the adventure offered or just answer a list of questions.

And you can submit your responses by e-mail or in print. Deadline: 27 February 2012.

And there are prizes!

Check the ‘Latest Research’ tab for a report about VPL collections and ‘trends’. The report does mention historical newspapers, genealogy resources and Special Collections, including the digitizing of over 25,000 photographs and The BC Saturday Sunset, 1907-1915.
