Besides the manuscripts listed above, and the personal testimonies of those credited on the acknowledgments page, a major reference source used in the writing of this book was the historical material on the Children’s Aid Society of Toronto and the Infants’ Home and Infirmary housed in the archives of the City of Toronto. This archival material includes annual reports, board and committee minutes, financial records, complaint books, operational records, policies and position papers, theses, fundraising appeals, public relations brochures, newspaper clippings, correspondence, agency reviews and provincial government papers.
The agency journal, Our Children, published between 1964 and 1987, and its successor, Communicate, which commenced publication in 1991, were major reference sources on the events of the last four decades of the twentieth century. Many of the articles these journals contain were written anonymously, and excerpts from several of them are reproduced verbatim as part of the text of this book.
