Excerpt from Index to Reports of Canadian Archives From 1872 to 1908

The decision of the government to centralize at the federal Archives all the documents prior to 1867 which had remained scattered throughout the different departments has brought to completion the work undertaken by these worthy pioneers. The great project begun in 1872 and pursued without interruption for thirty - six years, reached its consummation when the Hon. Mr. Fisher, Minister of Agriculture, brought about the erection of the stately Archives building in the Capital of the Domin ion for the preservation from fire or loss, of the thousands of volumes of manuscripts assembled here with so much care, and consulted by historians and students in all parts of the world.

Excerpt from Index to Reports of Canadian Archives From 1872 to 1908

The systematic organization of a federal collection of Archives was begun in 187 2. Before that time there had been some individual attempts to gather in France or in England documents relating to the early days of our history; but the lack of uniformity in research and of' centralization afterwards, rendered these pioneer efforts of little value.
