Library and Archives Canada Digitization of Canadian Expeditionary Force Files for WWI. Project completion.

L.A.C., with the support of Public Works and Government Services Canada, has undertaken the digitization of about 640,000 service files of members of the CEF (some members having two or more files in their name due to changes in their status) to complement the more than 620,000 attestation papers. By identifying an interesting entry close to the first for surnames A-Z the community recognises the importance of these fragile documents. " Canadians now have unprecedented access to this rich resource and will be able to research high-quality digital copies of the more than 640,000 service files for free anytime and anywhere. Each file contains, on average, 49 images, for a total of over 32,000,000 images or almost 617 terabytes of scanned information. "
