    Historique

    The Depository Branch was established in 1850 within the Department of Public Instruction for the Province of Canada. It was originally known as the Education Depositary. Under the authority of the "School Act" of 1850, the sum of 3,000 pounds sterling was set aside for the support of school libraries.

    Beginning in 1873, it was known as the Depository Branch. Under constant attack by private booksellers, the branch was abolished by Order-In- Council in 1881.
