Library of Parliament committee  I agree with Mr. Graham that we need to do things right, but I also am not convinced that the Library of Parliament or the officials will be able to put in place a user-friendly format. It's great to have everything online, but if it's not user-friendly to the public, what's the

Library of Parliament committee  Thank you very much for joining us today, Ms. Lank. I am very pleased to have you here. I want to sincerely congratulate you on your accomplishments in your life and work. I am sure that you will contribute tremendously to the building of the great institution of the Library of P

Library of Parliament committee  Thank you very much. I simply have a few comments and questions about the manner in which the guided tours for the public will be managed at the new visitor centre. When visitors come to the House to listen to the debates, especially in groups, do you know if they will have to

Library of Parliament committee  How many seats do you believe will be available for the public in the new gallery? The educative experience is quite important. I think you're doing this educational outreach, which sounds absolutely fantastic, with the virtual element and trying to go to the Canadian public outs

Library of Parliament committee  Thank you.

Library of Parliament committee  I'd like to ask a brief question. Will all of the reports be released at the same time during the elections, or do you intend to stagger the process over a certain period of time? I have another comment to make.

Library of Parliament committee  It's my final question, actually, or maybe I can go to the third round.

Library of Parliament committee  I was just wondering when the last review of services was done with members of Parliament and senators.

Library of Parliament committee  For instance, I'm a new MP here and have been here for two years and have never had anyone from the Library of Parliament ask my opinion about the services I've received since I've been here. I was wondering when the last time was that the Library of Parliament conducted a review

Library of Parliament committee  I was wondering also whether you have done a review of your website to make sure that it's very user-friendly.

Library of Parliament committee  Okay. To be honest, it actually does seem very nice to use. That's a compliment. I'm just asking the question. Related to that, I know this is not supposed to be personal, but I was using your catalogue to try to obtain documents, because I am a university researcher and have a

Library of Parliament committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. Can you tell me how many people worked in that four-year period on the file Mr. Van Kesteren referred to? What was the involvement of IT and others to make this project a success?

Library of Parliament committee  In your study, did you look at other countries of the world that have had the same problems, such as the Library of Congress, or the United Kingdom, or Australia or other European countries that probably have more stringent laws on accessibility than we do, but successfully imple

Library of Parliament committee  In order to take this project to fruition, the project of ensuring the transparency of those files, are you expecting an order or direction from the committee, or are you going to wait another four years? In fact, the committee had not met for four years. Are you waiting for Priv
