 Hi, my name is Colleen Quigley, I'm the acting head of the Archives and Special Collections here at the Queen Elizabeth II Library. One of my primary responsibilities includes our amazing performing arts collection. One of the areas that is really untapped and ripe for researchers is things that are happening here on the home front. How were people entertaining themselves? What were the everyday people talking about during the war? What makes the Rossi collection so interesting to World War I research and study is that it gives us a glimpse and idea as to how children were entertaining the locals here. How were people behaving just pre-war and during the war? I'm sure many of you would be surprised that a troop of 40-plus children were touring Atlantic Canada all the way up into 1916. So there are a lot of surprises that many researchers and the public will find when they actually dig deep into the Rossi's.
