A portal into the history and archives of the Antigonish Movement and the Coady International Institute has been launched at St. F. X. The on-line journey chronicles the Coady Story in Antigonish, Canada, and around the World.
Visitors to the site can read the original founding documents, view hundreds of historic photographs, listen to digitized recordings of Dr. Moses Coady, and read Dr. Coady’s original manuscript of ‘Master’s of their Own Destiny’. Mary Coyle, the Director of the Coady International Institute, says their goal was to make the storied history of the Antigonish Movement and its founders accessible to all.
Anyone can access the over 14-hundred historical artifacts, recordings, and photographs by visiting the portal at coadyextension.stfx.ca. The official grand opening of the new Coady building and celebration of the Institute’s 50th anniversary was Saturday, September 26th.
