Description:
The organization houses a collection of materials related to the Mohawk Institute, known as the “Mush Hole” to its students.

If funding is received for 2024, the goal would be to scan all materials in the reworked fonds to create digitally-accessible copies of the records.
Organization:
Library and Archives Canada

The proposed project is to preserve these important records through digitization as well as increase access to the fonds by sharing the digital files with multiple organizations to be made available to their respective audiences of researchers.
