The
Canadian Architecture Collection (CAC) was
established by Professor Emeritus John Bland, Director of the McGill School of
Architecture for 31 years. As one of the McGill University Libraries' Special
Collections, it is an important resource for architecture and urban planning
research. Its mandate is to document the work of past and present architects who
have studied and/or taught at the McGill University School of Architecture and
Urban planning. Through photographs, drawings, and corollary documentation, the
CAC also seeks to represent the evolution of the McGill campus, the city of
Montreal, and the architectural heritage of Quebec and Canada.
In addition to supporting primarily the teaching and research requirements of the McGill School
of Architecture and Urban Planning, the CAC assists other departments within
McGill, and the architecture and art history departments in the region. The CAC
also provides a service to practising architects, art and architecture
historians, and independent researchers.
