16-26 Expenditures as reported in Canadian dollars: (16a) $148,951 (16b) $266,578 (16c) $55,856 (16d) $0 (16) $471,385 (17) $0 (18a)

the completion of special funding for the AMICAN/Trusted Digital Repository project.
32 Genealogy accounts for 10,622 transactions. While this reported figure is in variance with the 2009-2010, it is consistent with the
number of transactions that were recorded for the period from 2005 to 2009.
34 There is a decrease in total number of circulations as more documents are digitized.
35 This decrease is probably linked to the growth of digitization, electronic publishing and well-developed regional sharing
networks among Canadian libraries.
