About the Carleton Library Series:
The Carleton Library Series is the most enduring and significant initiative taken in the history of Canadian publishing where the editing, reprinting, and dissemination of documents important to the history of Canada is concerned. The CLS was initiated in the 1950s by Carleton University professor of English, R. L. McDougall and his colleagues. For more than 50 years, over 225 titles have appeared covering Canadian economics, geography, history, politics, public policy, society and culture, and related topics, in the form of leading new scholarship and reprints of classics in these fields.

The series is funded by Carleton University and housed in the MacOdrum Library, published by McGill-Queen’s University Press, and is under the guidance of the Carleton Library Series Editorial Board consisting of faculty members of Carleton University.
