On the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we remember the children who never returned home from residential schools, and honour the survivors, their families, and communities.
In recognition of this day, we joined the campus community for the raising of the Every Child Matters flag outside the Owens Art Gallery.

HAPPY HOMECOMING, MOUNTIES! 🏈🙌

In celebration, Mount Allison Libraries & Archives is launching a collection of past Football Programmes, now available in our Novanet interface: https://mta.novanet.ca/discovery/collectionDiscovery?vid=01NOVA_MTA:MTA&inst=01NOVA_MTA&collectionId=81137989940007192

At a glance, you can see each year’s Homecoming Programme to relive your favourite Mounties memories!

The collection is searchable by keywords - look up by year or using opponents’ team names like STFX. Remember to use Boolean “OR” to find all the results - back in 1961 we wrote St. F. X. and in 1974 simply SFX.

Once you click into a programme, you can do a keyword search to find specific words or names. How many players named “Scott” participated in the Vanier Cup XXVII? You can see all three Scotts attending the ‘91 Vanier Cup Football Alumni Reunion: Scott Anderson ‘92, Scott Ellison ‘92, and Scott O’Neil ‘94.

There is even a page-by-page view so you can scroll through the programmes like they are in your hands! Check these programmes out at the link in our bio before the big game this weekend!
