Frontier Life is a digital resource designed to enrich teaching
and research, examining settlement, existence and interactions at the
edge of the Anglophone world from 1650-1920. With a vast array of
primary source material previously unavailable in digital form, this
resource enables research into the many dynamics of frontier existence
and its lasting influence across multiple regions. Primary sources from
Canada include archives from the Glenbow Museum and the Hudson’s Bay
Company Archives Library, Archives of Manitoba.Consortia Canada, Adam Matthew and 18 leading academic institutions have collaborated to open this essential content to libraries and educational institutions nationwide, including all library types: public, post-secondary, special, archives, museums and K-12 schools. The collaboration unlocks important primary sources to provide the broader community with a comparative view on the various colonial frontiers across the globe.
