Canadian National Digital Heritage Index

The Canadian National Digital Heritage Index (CNDHI) was launched by CRKN in 2016 with financial support from Library and Archives Canada (LAC) through the Documentary Heritage Communities Program. Originally available as a standalone website, CNDHI was intended to increase awareness of and access to digital heritage collections in Canada, to identify gaps in digitization efforts, and to identify opportunities for collaboration.

While CNDHI is no longer being actively expanded as of 2026, CRKN maintains the list of collections indexed in CNDHI in the spreadsheet linked below. Please note that some links may no longer be active, or they may be archived by the Government of Canada Web Archive or by Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

If you are a host institution who would like to see their collection entry amended, or if you would like to add a new collection, please contact CRKN at info@crkn.ca. 

If you have a question about a collection indexed on CNDHI, please contact the host institution directly.

CRKN respectfully acknowledges that its offices are located on the traditional, unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe People. We also recognize that our member institutions are situated across the land now known as Canada, and we extend our respect and gratitude to all First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities.

Through our work—particularly with the Canadiana and Héritage collections—we are committed to acknowledging colonial injustices, supporting First Nation, Inuit, and Métis data sovereignty, and working in partnership with communities. We strive to engage in respectful practices that honour community protocols and uphold the right of Indigenous Peoples to determine how materials related to their heritage are governed.
