Visit the Archives database (AtoM)
The Archives database is the best place to start searching for archival material. Here you can search the descriptions of archival holdings. As the archives develops, you will also be able to find digitized materials through the platform. If you would like to view something that you find listed in the database, you can make an appointment by sending an email to archives@ecuad.ca. You'll need to make note of the title and reference code.
Please note that many of the archival materials that we care for are not yet listed in the database. We are continually adding new descriptions and digital objects. If you can't find what you are looking for, please contact us.
Visit the pages Searching the ECU Archives database and Navigating Results and Descriptions in the ECU Archives database (by these links or in the drop-down menu) for more information on how to search and use the database.

One of the most effective ways to conduct archival research is to reach out the archives/archivist. They are the people who know the collections the best and whose job it is to make materials available. If you are a new or experienced researcher, feel free to reach out to archives@ecuad.ca to arrange a meeting and discuss what archival resources exist related to your research/practice.
