How to Find Ontario Land Record Microfilm Number that You Need Posted 19 August 2008 By Kathie Orr, Professional Genealogist. kathie.orr@sympatico.ca Good News 
How many times have researchers searched the Ontario Land Record Index fiches found something and then had problems knowing what microfilm reels they need to look at? Well the Archives of Ontario has now put a guide to the complete process online. Archives of Ontario have added to thier original Research Guide 205, How to Use the Ontario Land Records Index ca. 1780 - ca. 1920, a new online guide to help researchers find the microfilm they need. Archival Reference (ARCHIVAL REF) To understand the archival reference code and to identify the microfilm reel that contains the original entry, consult the Ontario Land Records Index: How to Find the Reel of Microfilm You Need available in the microfiche binders in the Main Reading Room of the Archives of Ontario (AO) or online. There is now a link to Guide 205 from the OLRI section on the Interloan catalogue as well. This is great news because when the Archives of Ontario originally produced the OLRI they gave it away to any library that requested it, providing that they had a fiche reader. And just in case you have not visited the Archives of Ontario website in the last while, the Archives of Ontario wants your feedback. They have a customer service survey they would like you to fill in. Give them your feedback and you have the chance of winning $200.00.
