Flickr/YouTube Albums

Library and Archives Canada (LAC) is pleased to announce that a selection of digital images related to Irish-Canadian documentary heritage have been made available for the first time on Flickr.com, a popular photo-sharing community. As part of the pilot project a number of video presentations will be added to YouTube.com, a popular video-sharing community. Both online communities allow for commenting, sharing, and tagging of content.

The objective of the project is to explore new ways to improve access to and increase interaction with Canada's documentary heritage. Library and Archives Canada is excited about the opportunities that social media-sharing communities provide for Canadians to discuss and contextualize an important selection of our collective history.
