Abstract

Libris Canadiana provides access to Canadian periodicals of historical significance. The centrepiece of the database is the Annotated Index to Maclean’s, 1905-1976, but it also includes comprehensive annotated indexes to the Financial Post, the University Magazine, the Canadian Bookman, the Monetary Times of Canada, Massey’s Magazine, Canadian Forum, Everywoman’s World, The Rebel, Descant, Saturday Night, the Canadian Magazine and the recently added Canadian Illustrated News. In this article, the developer and publisher and the principal indexer and editor of Libris Canadiana provide a tour of the content and explain the indexing process.
