The Maritime History of the Great Lakes site is managed by Walter Lewis

Since 2005 this site has been the prototype for the digital collection management tools built for the Our Digital World (formerly the OurOntario project of Knowledge Ontario.)

As a prototype it is subject to occasional, unexplained interruptions in service ... because we keep trying new things.
