Library and Archives Canada and the Plenary Properties Gatineau (PPG) consortium have revealed the design of a second preservation centre in Gatineau, Quebec. The new building will be located directly behind the current Preservation Centre. The space will be the first net-zero carbon facility dedicated to archival preservation in the Americas, and the first federal building constructed to the requirements of Canada's Greening Government Strategy. It will also be the world's largest preservation facility equipped with a high-tech automated archive storage and retrieval system.
