The Parliament Library of Canada and Its Restoration
The article traces the early Canadian parliamentary libraries from Quebec City 1792 through the union in 1841, the 1865 Ottawa move, and the 1876 opening of an octagonal building by Thomas Fuller. It details the domed restoration after the 1952 fire, cost, and the rebuilt parquet floor, modern stacks, and preserved collections including Hansard and British documents.
