As a part of History in the Hot Seat; Colonialism and the Knowing and Teaching of Canada’s Past, a Zotero library was created to aid in gathering and organizing resources related to the project. Zotero is a free, easy-to-use tool to help you collect, organize, annotate, cite, and share research.

The creation of this library was a collaborative project. We are grateful to student research assistants Hannah Belec, Katja Buchholz, and Jamie Nienhuysen for their work on this project.

History in the Hot Seat is a Knowledge Synthesis Grant funded by Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) in partnership with Canadian Heritage, Genome Canada, and UK Research and Innovation’s Arts and Humanities Research Council (UKRI-AHRC) that aimed to mobilize, examine and synthesize social sciences and humanities research on Evolving Narratives of Cultures and Histories.
