Inside the KARA Research Centre:

Shown are two photographs of materials within the library of the KARA reading room, just a small sampling of what awaits the avid family history researcher upon arrival to our Research Centre. The KARA library contains one of the largest collections of family history material for the central-east Ontario region.
