Dear colleagues and friends,
I hope that everyone is navigating in good health the current pandemic crisis, with its lot of lockdowns, quarantines and confinements and macabre arithmetics.

Thus, if you have already run out of books in your library or series on a certain subscription network or are just looking for a good old museum tour in order to get away from all this (and especially certain press conferences...), might I suggest a visit to the Virtual Museum of Greek Immigration to Canada<https://virtual.immigrec.com/en#/start/immigration-and-language-in-canada>.

The museum is the outcome of a 2-year research effort conducted by Immigrec<https://immigrec.com/>, an interdisciplinary educational consortium, comprising research teams<https://immigrec.com/research-teams/> from four universities in Canada (McGill, Simon Fraser and York) and Greece (Patras), thanks to the support of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.

You can listen to interviews, discover documents or just play with maps<https://immigrec.com/maps/> and locate someone you know.
Contact us if you have material you may want to share!
Enjoy and stay healthy all of you!
