Exhibition | The Unfinished Path to Reconciliation
鈥淩econciliation is not an Indigenous problem 鈥� it is a Canadian problem. It involves all of us,鈥� said Justice Murray Sinclair, chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, which was tasked with investigating and commemorating the residential school system.
As Justice Sinclair and many others have said, education is key to reconciliation. As institutions that are both repositories for knowledge and natural gathering places, libraries can play an important role in reconciliation. With this goal, the Nahum Gelber Law Library offers to its visitors a new exhibition: The Unfinished Path to Reconciliation.
The blended-media exhibition features primary documents, books, reproductions of archival documents and memorabilia and highlight important cases on native鈥檚 rights. The exhibition includes digital materials presented on an interactive touch-table.

The use of touch-table for this exhibition is a part of the McGill Library Innovation in Service project.
The exhibition was curated by Sonia Smith.
