Archival materials pertaining to the history of the Canadian Psychological Association and the history of Canadian psychology more generally, are contained at Library and Archives Canada (formerly the National Archives of Canada) located in Ottawa. Members of the Canadian Psychological Association, scholars and researchers are invited to consult these materials.<\/p>\n

In archival terminology, these materials comprise what is known as the \u201cCanadian Psychological Association fonds\u201d and consist of textual records and sound recordings from 1919 to 1984. The textual records include papers pertaining to: CPA\u2019s constitution, by-laws and elections; committees; finances; meetings; membership; publications; conferences; reprints; and transcripts of the \u201cOral History of Psychology in Canada\u201d series, and occupy some 15 metres of shelf space. The sound recordings consist of audio reels and cassettes of the \u201cOral History of Psychology in Canada\u201d series and run about 214 hours in total.<\/p>\n

Most of the materials that comprise the Canadian Psychological Association fonds are open – that is, they are available for consultation without any restrictions. There are some materials however, where access is restricted. Among the restricted materials, some are restricted for a certain period of time; others (e.g., the textual records and sound recordings of the \u201cOral History of Psychology in Canada\u201d series) are restricted to researchers who have written permission from the CPA Historian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Canadian Psychological Association made its first donation of archival materials to Library and Archives Canada in 1972. Since then, it has made several additional donations, namely in 1974, 1978, 1980 and 1986.<\/p>\n

A detailed description of the archival materials donated prior to 1986 is available by consulting what is known as the \u201cFinding Aid\u201d<\/a> for the Canadian Psychological Association fonds. Prepared by Library and Archives Canada, the Finding Aid for the Canadian Psychological Association fonds delineates the contents of the fonds by volume and file.<\/p>\n

Detailed information concerning archival materials donated in 1986 is not available at this time. Nonetheless, a brief summary of what is known as the \u201cAccession\u201d of the Canadian Psychological Association fonds (i.e., delineation of contents of the Accession by volume) is noted in the table below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Archival materials pertaining to the Canadian Psychological Association from 1986 to the present are either currently in use or in storage at the Association\u2019s Head Office awaiting processing. It is hoped that materials no longer in use will be processed and donated to Library and Archives Canada in the near future where they will be further processed. An announcement will be made to CPA members when these materials become available for research purposes.<\/td>\n
