Digitization Projects–Canada
Now Available: The Digitized Diaries of William Mackenzie King
Last May we mentioned that a project was underway to digitize this material. Today, news from Cold North Wind that the project is complete. From the announcement, “The diaries, which King kept on a regular basis from 1893 while as a student at the University of Toronto until shortly before his death in 1950, provide an intimate glimpse into one of Canada’s most unique and dominant political figures. The diaries are available on the National Archives website as part of a retrospective on King’s life. The diaries are searchable by term or phrase as well as by date and page number. The diaries exist in three different forms�the original handwritten diary; a typed transcript and an abridged typed transcript. In total there are about 50,000 images.”
