Abstract

The Turkish population in Canada is quite small (about 10,000) and is concentrated in the Toronto metropolitan area. The Turkish community formed the Federation of Canadian Turkish Associations in 1985 to coordinate member associations and to connect the Turkish community to the Canadian network. The Metropolitan Toronto Reference Library has developed a collection of Turkish materials through purchase and gifts. In addition, it has mounted several displays related to the Turkish collection. The North York Public Library also has a Turkish collection and sponsors Turkish cultural programs.
