University of Toronto, School of Continuing Studies have a new and interesting non-credit course coming up very soon. The course coaches would-be sleuths how to uncover the history of specific properties in Toronto. I suspect that the lessons learned will also assist students to use similar methods to research buildings in other places.
We are often asked how to go about doing such a search. Here's are the details about a course that promises to get you started:
- 21 Oct - 25 Nov 2008: 6 sessions, Tuesdays, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
Your City, Your House, Your Family
University of Toronto, School of Continuing Studies - course
A guide to Toronto local history research. Are you interested in discovering the history of your house or neighborhood, the history of your family once in Toronto, or a Toronto business or institution? Are you exploring another aspect of Toronto history? Or are you a writer or researcher? This course introduces established principles of local and family history research as taught worldwide, and suggests how to apply them in the Toronto context. We work our way through a variety of research projects, representative of the expressed interests of participants. In support of these practical case studies we review, in an integrated way, remarkable resources which we can draw upon, including some little-known ones. Watch yourself start to become a local history sleuth! For further information, see website
