Series consists of reference material from the former Canadian National Railways library. The library opened in 1961 at CN headquarters at Montreal and was accessible to all CN employees. Due to a lack of space and need for profitability, the library was reduced in size a few times and moved into smaller premises. Its last location was 1060 Belmont Street in Montreal. For the same reasons, CN decided to finally close the library in1998-99.

Included in this series is material created and/or maintained by Canadian National Railways, including, photographs, maps, charts, speeches, directories, a sound recording, research reports, and publicity magazines and pamphlets.

Also included in this series are technical research reports and work studies published by the Technical Research Branch, Operational Research and Industrial Engineering Branch, and Research and Development Department. (See vols. 155517-15521,15528-15534 and 16419-16481). Examples of research and studies are: the development of a new grain door, the design of a new automobile transporter and of a new pulpwood car, the improvement of the highway services organisation, the car control and yard radio, the transportation of oils via rail, the diversification into oil and gas production and pipeline transportation, the Okanagan Valley profitability, the interprovincial routing patterns, the cost of grain dooring on the central region, the express freight transportation system, the atmospheric conditions in the Mount-Royal and St-Clair tunnels under diesel locomotive operation, a caboose study project, the frozen foods transportation market, etc. The reports date mostly from the 1950's, 60's and 70's.

Also included in this series are various CN newsletters published for employees, including Operations East Newsletter, Transcona Shops Newsletter, Flash News, CN Reporter/Nouvelles (vol. 15523) and CNR Personnel Bulletin and Pensioner's News (15534).

Finally there are documents containing very significant historical information about the Great Trunk Railway Company, the Great Trunk Western Railway, the Intercolonial Railway, the Canadian Northern Railway, the Canadian National Railways and subsidiaries companies (vols. 16449-16481). Among these documents are the reports from the Directors of the Grand Trunk Railway from 1857 to 1882 (vols.16449- 16451), the annual reports of the CNR between 1923 and 1958 (vols. 16458-16463) and the arbitration hearings related to the acquisition by His Majesty of the capital stock of the Canadian Northern Railway Company in 1918 (vols.16472-16481).

There is also an index to Donald Gordon's scrapbook.

Information about these and other materials can also be found in the lower-level sub-series descriptions, particularly the sub-series entitled Marketing, publicity and miscellaneous reports.
