Archives Addition
The Simcoe County Archives expansion project is complete. The project added 10,000 sq. ft., bringing the Archives total footprint to 18,000 sq. ft. Four separate vaults provide precision environmental conditions for different storage media, and high-density moveable shelving optimizes the new storage space.
On February 24, 2012, the Simcoe County Archives celebrated the official grand opening of the expansion. To listen to an audio recording of the ceremony, click here.
