Old Messengers, New Media Digital Archive

A special website set up by Library and Archives Canada - Bibliothèque et Archives Canada - is now accessible, courtesy of Project Manager Don Wallace and doctoral student Joanne Stober.

The site, which is particularly intended to be a resource for students, is entitled "Old Messengers, New Media: The Legacy of Innis and McLuhan," includes summaries of both scholars lives and works, and a set of short, accessible essays on the topic of "Archives as Medium," with contributions from Robert Babe, William Buxton, Michael Cheney, Terry Cook, Kim Sawchuk, and Lance Strate.

There's also a Forum section for further discussion.
