Le Musée McCord Stewart indexera et décrira plus en profondeur une sélection de 100 ensembles numérisés disponibles en ligne et détaillera davantage leur description et leur indexation pour que les multiples couches d’informations qu’elles contiennent deviennent repérables pour les chercheurs et que les archives deviennent pleinement accessibles aux usagers. À partir de ces ensembles, 200 documents significatifs seront choisis pour une description à la pièce. Environ 48 pièces ou extraits de documents pertinents seront retranscrits, incluant une douzaine d’articles thématiques, pour présenter la collection d’archives textuelles du Musée McCord Stewart.
