Database of Archival Description Database of Archival Description (DAD)

Welcome to the Database of Archival Description (DAD). This database houses descriptions of all material held in the archives of the Guelph Public Library. DAD allows researchers to identify archival records germane to their research, provides them with contextual information on the creators of these records, identifies any access restrictions or conditions of use, and gives clear instructions on requesting access to desired material. The descriptions in this database conform to the Rules for Archival Description (RAD), a standard used by the archival community throughout Canada to guide how archives provide access to their materials.
