Special Collections
In addition to our own library holdings, the Centre hosts three other special
collections. The contents of both are included in our online
library catalogue. To see a
complete list of the titles, do an Advanced Search for the terms “IFPCA” or “LDAQ” in

ATEQ Travelling trunks
This is a special travelling trunk project in partnership with the Association of Teachers of
English of Quebec (ATEQ).
With funding and input from ATEQ, we are putting together a series of resource trunks to bring innovative teaching materials to the classrooms of ATEQ members across the province. Two of these trunks have already been lent out to ATEQ members, and more are being assembled.

IFPCA Collection
The Initiative fédérale-provinciale conjointe en matière d’alphabétisation
(IFPCA) has been Quebec’s annually-renewed, federal-provincial cost-shared program.
This program funds local literacy research, promotion, professional
development or materials creation projects, proposed by Quebec’s adult
literacy and basic education providers.
The IFPCA Collection contains the English-language products of these projects,
and includes research and project reports, promotional materials,
student writings, and teaching and assessment materials. All
titles may be borrowed,
and several are available online.

IFPCA Documents
French-language IFPCA materials are housed by the Centre
de documentation en education des adultes et la condition
feminine (CDEACF).
LDAQ Montreal Chapter One Tutoring Collection
In 2002 the Learning
Disabilities Association of Quebec (LDAQ) Montreal Chapter One selected
and purchased several remedial teaching materials for the use of their tutors.
Because they lacked the space and capacity, they asked The Centre for Literacy
to catalogue, host and circulate these materials on their behalf. The Montreal
Chapter One tutoring service discontinued their tutoring service in 2003,
so this collection is now accessible to all borrowers.
