Price McIntosh Bursary
Library and Archives Canada
For the sixth consecutive year, Library and Archives Canada (LAC) is offering financial assistance through the Price McIntosh Bursary to Indigenous peoples (First Nations, Inuit and Métis), persons with disabilities and members of visible minorities. The bursary aims to encourage them to enrol in or pursue studies in fields related to libraries and archives.
The Price McIntosh Bursary supports LAC’s efforts to promote the inclusion and diversity of perspectives, interpretations and experiences within the documentary heritage professions, helping to enrich our collective history and uncover the many stories it contains.
This LAC initiative provides $5,000 for full-time students and $2,500 for part-time students enrolled in post-secondary program in a field related to documentary heritage.
The call for applications is now open. For the 2026–2027 academic year, eligible students are encouraged to submit their application by September 24, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. (Pacific Daylight Time).
