Service provision for the relocation of government records from Library and Archives Canada (LAC)’s National Capital Region Regional Service Centre (Ottawa) to the Center of Canada Regional Service Centre (Winnipeg). This collection is composed of approximately 107,000 linear feet of shelved files (between 1,100,000 and 1,660,000 files), including small collections of odd-sized items such as X-ray film and attestation cards.
In essence, the effort will consist of: packing, securely transporting from Ottawa to Winnipeg, unpacking and carefully tracking an entire collection of information resources. Movers must physically remove the specified material from the shelves, pack it following an agreed upon procedure, move it on and off the vehicles and shelve the material as instructed at the receiving end of the move.
LAC expects this move to begin in early June 2014. The move must be completed by mid-December 2014.
