Administrative history
Canada's Visual History is a cooperative venture of the National Film Board and the National Museum of Man (National Museums of Canada). The project was designed to meet two specific needs: (1) to bring to teachers the most recent research on a variety of topics relating to the social and economic history of Canada, combining these insights with illustrations gleaned from collections not readily available to teachers and students and (2) to present this information in a dramatic format, carrying the student back into eventful times with all the impact the camera provides.
Custodial history
