HRM Archives continually adds to its holdings through transfer of municipal records and donations of community records. While it takes time to make these new acquisitions completely accessible, this listing at least gives a hint of what we've recently acquired.
HRM also gratefully acknowledges the donors who have given historical records to the Municipal Archives. See our Donations page for details.
