One of the major goals of the Society for the Preservation of Canada’s Nuclear Heritage is to collect and preserve relevant documents.

These were used by AECL researchers and other Canadian nuclear scientists and engineers; nearly all were donated by them or their surviving relatives. Below is a simplified version of our catalogue of published books, pamphlets, and electronic resources held. Some are out of print or in fragile condition, and their loss would be irreplaceable.

Access to the collection

The Society does not lend any items in the reference collection.

Limited photo or digital copies may be available in exceptional circumstances; for example, in answer to a reference question. However, we welcome visits by interested researchers to use the reference collection onsite. Library and Archives Canada, and many Canadian major university libraries or similar libraries in other countries, provide interlibrary loans and photocopy services.
