Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec
Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec, National library and archive in Montreal, Canada
The Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec is a six-story building housing over four million items ranging from books and periodicals to newspapers and digital media. The collection includes materials in multiple languages and formats, serving researchers, students, and general visitors.
This institution was created in 2006 through the merger of the National Library of Quebec and the National Archives of Quebec. The consolidation brought together two long-standing organizations to create a unified body for preserving and sharing the province's documentary heritage.
The collection focuses on works by Quebec authors and documents that reflect the province's intellectual traditions. You can explore how writers and thinkers have shaped Quebec's cultural development through the materials on display and available for consultation.
The facility offers free wifi, study spaces, and computer stations throughout the building for your research and work. Specialized equipment is available for digitizing or copying materials if you need to take records with you.
The building contains a climate-controlled underground vault that protects rare documents from the era of New France. These materials give visitors a glimpse into the earliest written records of French settlement in North America.
