BC – Parliamentary Journals 1851 – 1991

Our sources tell us that the Legislative Assembly of BC is in the midst of testing an interface for the newly digitized parliamentary Journals from 1851 – 1991.  It’s live right now and you can search within all the volumes, browse the indexes & appendices or scroll through the individual volumes.  Note, from 1872 – 1876, the appendices include the Sessional Papers!  Heady stuff for historians indeed.

Beware, the URL includes the word “test” so this link may break in future.  We’ll post an update as soon as we hear of a permanent URL for this wonderful resource.
