The Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre has completed its digitization of Families on the Coast: The Madokoro Collections. The collections include the Thomas and Sachi Madokoro Family Collection and the Mamoru Madokoro Collection. Both contain valuable materials that document the economic, historical, and cultural history, particularly BC’s fishing industry, of Japanese Canadians before, during, and after the Second World War.
The digitization of Families on the Coast: The Madokoro Collections was digitized with support from the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre through its BC History Digitization Program.
