FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Donation to Dundas County Archives
April 15, 2019
On April 1st, the SDG Library officially donated the Dundas County Land Records to the Dundas County Archives.
Since being digitized by the provincial Land Registry Office, the SDG Library had been housing the physical records and providing access to the public when requested. With the establishment of the Dundas County Archives, it was agreed that the best home for the land records was with the Archives.
“We are happy to work with the Dundas County Archives to continue to preserve the land records and provide public access” said Karen Franklin, Director of Library Services. “The Library is working closely with the archival organizations in SDG to ensure that our collections are properly preserved and located with the appropriate organization.”
The physical transfer of the land records from Morrisburg to the Archives in Iroquois will take place later this year.
