Section IV - Other Items of Interest
This section presents some of Library and Archives Canada's key commitments that are not part of the Modernization Innovation Initiatives.
LAC's commitment to enhance the vitality of the official-language minority communities
In 2011–12, Library and Archives Canada will implement various measures to address the issues expressed by the Commissioner of Official Languages in its Annual Report. We will update our four-year action plan (2009–12) to integrate and strengthen all actions to ensure compliance with our official languages obligations and particularly to support the official-language minority communities in their development. LAC will self-assess our services to the public on a random basis to detect any official languages shortfalls and respond to them accordingly.
Measures taken to comply with the Directive on the Management of Expenditures on Travel, Hospitality and Conferences
In the 2009 federal Budget the Government of Canada decided to place certain restrictions to minimize the costs related to travel, hospitality and conferences on 2008–09 spending. LAC ensures the compliance with this new policy by an on-going monitoring. Hospitality expenditures to be approved by the Librarian and Archivist of Canada are first subjected to a quarterly pre-approval process while the travel and conferences plan are pre-approved on an annual basis. This process ensures that proposed activities are aligned with LAC's mandate and priorities and the most economical and efficient options have been reviewed.
The decision to pursue the National Archival Development Program (NADP) will be announced soon
LAC currently provides financial assistance through the National Archival Development Program (NADP) to Canadian archives and related organizations to increase their capacity to preserve and make accessible unique archival materials about Canada and Canadians. The five year program cycle ends in 2010–11. Following a Summative Evaluation, which was completed in 2010, a decision on continuation of the program is to be made prior to March 2011.
