HotDocs, North America’s largest documentary festival, conference and market, will be making its annual arrival in Toronto from April 26 to May 6. As recently reported, the Library’s Archives and Special Collections received a donation of assets from past Hot Docs Festivals and year-round activities. This collection is now accessible on the Library’s 4th floor, and includes:
- HotDocs schedules and guides,
- Promotional materials,
- Administrative records, such as annual reports, and
- a DVD collection of 72 documentary films, with many items available for borrowing from our AV collection located on the 5th floor.
The Library’s audio-visual collection includes many other documentary films available for borrowing, as well as films that are viewable through online streaming sites such as Kanopy, Curio and the National Film Board of Canada.
