Step into History with our new Squamish Archives Database!
In the spirit of BC Heritage Week, February 19-25, we are excited to share we have migrated all the existing digital historical records from two databases to a single database! We've even added records that have never been digitized before.
New Squamish History Archives Database!
BiblioBoard is now the new home of our digital repository which includes audio, photos, newspapers, and documents across the last century.

We look forward to expanding access to, and digitizing, more of our archival records in the coming year(s).
This week and beyond, we invite you to dig deeper, Layer by Layer, into our community’s past and explore the many stories our community holds.
