Published in May–June 1989 by the National Archives of Canada, L’archiviste / The Archivist (Volume 16, No. 3) is a bilingual thematic issue of the official institutional magazine dedicated entirely to the history, preservation, and cultural impact of photography in Canada.

Featuring essays contributed by prominent archival specialists and photo-historians—including Joan M. Schwartz, Andrew Birrell, Peter Robertson, and Lilly Koltun—the 28-page publication explores the evolving role of photographic records in shaping Canadian identity and national memory. Articles cover key historical themes, including early 19th-century daguerreotype processes, 19th- and 20th-century expeditionary and commercial studio practices, the documentation of Indigenous communities, military and government survey photography, and the challenges of conserving visual holdings in modern public archives. Through concise textual studies accompanied by black-and-white archival reproductions, the issue serves as an accessible scholarly overview of Canada’s rich photographic heritage.
