Launched in 2016, the Canadian National Digital Heritage Index (CNDHI) is an index of digitized heritage collections from across Canada. Managed by the Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN) and supported by Library and Archives Canada (LAC), CNDHI increases awareness of and access to digital heritage collections in Canada. Notice to users: As of June 30, 2026, all content included in CNDHI will be migrated to the CRKN website, and the CNDHI website will close. All CNDHI records will continue to remain accessible as part of this migration. Please contact CRKN at info@crkn.ca for any questions.

    The Canadian Letters and Images Project
    Hosting Institution

    Vancouver Island University

    Collection Description
    The Canadian Letters and Images Project is an online archive of the Canadian war experience, from any war, as told through the letters and images of Canadians themselves. Begun in August 2000, the Project is located in the Department of History at Vancouver Island University. Through the digitization of contemporary letters, diaries, photographs, and other related materials, the Project permits Canadians to tell their story, and Canada’s story, through their own words and images. It is history without a lens of interpretation by the present.
