The Canadian Century Research Infrastructure is a pan-Canadian, multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional effort to develop a set of interrelated databases centred on data from the 1911, 1921, 1931, 1941 and 1951 Canadian censuses. The long term plan is that these databases will be joined to other data that cover the periods from 1871 to 1901, and from 1961 to 2001. The CCRI project successfully ran from 2003 to 2009, based at 7 university centres across Canada. Since its completion, the different components of the project are hosted in a number of different locations: at the University of Alberta, CIEQ (Centre interuniversitaire d’études québécoises at Université Laval and Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières), and at the University of Toronto. Proposals are going forward to consolidate and enhance this work. A special issue of Historical Methods was published on the CCRI project in 2007.Historical Methods: A Journal of Quantitative and Interdisciplinary History Spring 2007, vol 40, No. 2, including an introduction by Chad Gaffield: Conceptualizing and Constructing the Canadian Century Research Infrastructure A gateway website will be hosted at the University of Alberta.
