The Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism sponsored 165 research studies, which were carried out in the years 1964–7. Of these, 24 were published by the Commission and distributed widely through the services of Information Canada. Publication proceeded in two series: “Research Studies of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism,” and “Research Documents of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism.” The first series was comprised of studies which it was considered should be available in both official languages. The second series included studies judged to be of more specialized interest; these were published in the language of the author. Both series, listed in order of publication and by author and title, are set out in Table i.
1 These categories are retrospective, of course; the Commission's research work was organized differently, in accordance with its Terms of Reference. See the “Report of the Director of Research,” Appendix iv, Book i, Final Report of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism (Ottawa, 1967).
