Vancouver's Old Streams
Vancouver's Old Streams, 1880-1920 is a map produced by UBC Library and the Vancouver Aquarium that shows the paths of streams in Vancouver from 1880-1920 and the original shoreline of Vancouver. The map, and the data used to create it, are available to be downloaded online.
Online Interactive Finding Aid Maps
We have created new online interactive finding aid maps to navigate some of our larger dataset collections or understand how openly available data, such as the census is organized by geography. We will be periodically adding to this collection, so watch this space!
