Meetings of the Historical Society of Ottawa

All are welcome, admission is free.

Our Speaker Series consists of in-person presentations and virtual (Zoom) presentations, in English and in French.

Our monthly English-language in-person Speaker Series presentations generally take place in the auditorium of the Main Branch of the Ottawa Public Library (120 Metcalfe St).

Our monthly French-language in-person Speaker Series presentations generally take place at the St. Laurent Branch of the Ottawa Public Library (515 rue Coté).

Both library locations are wheelchair accessible.

Our virtual Speaker Series presentations, via Zoom, generally begin at 7 p.m. Attendees may use the Zoom captions function to provide English language subtitles for French language presentations (and French language subtitles for English language presentations).

In addition, we conduct an Annual General Meeting (AGM), normally in May, an occasion for the board of directors to report on projects and activities during the preceding year and offer insight into plans for the future. All members are eligible to vote for candidates for the board of directors.
