This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Government of Canada’s official declaration to announce May as Asian Heritage Month! Let’s take this opportunity to learn about the history, experiences and contributions of Canadians of Asian heritage who have added so much to the social and cultural fabric that makes our country. It’s also a good time to appreciate literature, movies and music by artists of Asian heritage who call Canada home. 

We have prepared lists of items you can borrow at the library, as well as some hyperlinks to the Canadian Encyclopedia and other Asian Canadian history resources you might find interesting to delve into. Enjoy!
