In this webinar, Kate and Catharine provide an introduction and interactive session of the City of Burnaby's online resource "Heritage Burnaby". Catharine and Kate deliver a tutorial in how to utilize the website’s one search functionality in order to access the over 100,000 heritage resources that are held by the City of Burnaby Archives, the Burnaby Village Museum, Burnaby Heritage Planning and the Office of the City Clerk. Sample searches include how to access photographs, film content, digital content and various collections and how to save and create a list or hyperlink. Kate and Catherine take questions from webinar participants including; how to create a citation?; access and reproduction restrictions; are there any records in other languages?; how to search for Burnaby school records?; how to search for materials from Burnaby Village Museum recent exhibitions and/or furnishings in exhibits?; how to search for heritage buildings and what terms to use?; how to use the atlas page?; are the photographs printable or high resolution? and do you have a system in place to help community groups to create or process files and photographs?.

Scope and Content
Series consists of copies of photographs pertaining to the Yasui family while Sukegoro (Shoyen) Yasui worked for the Nichols Chemical Company and the family lived on the site of Barnet. These photographs were published in the book "In the Shadow by the Sea: Recollections of Burnaby's Barnet Village".
History
Sukegoro (Shoyen) Yasui (1884-1972) and his wife Tane (Hirata) Yasui (d.1987) emigrated from Japan to Canada in 1919. Sukegoro and Tane had two children Yasue Margaret (Matsumura) (1921-2019) and Harding Yasui (1923-2008). Sukegoro worked as a burner operator for the Nichols Chemical Company of Barnet B.C. The family lived on the site with five other families in a bunkhouse including the three Kokuryo brothers and their families and the Kojima family. The children attended Barnet School for three years before the family moved to Surrey in 1934 after purchasing farm land. Sukegoro and Tane Yasui grew strawberries and raised chickens on the farm and Sukegoro continued to work shift work at the Nichols plant. In 1942, the Yasui family were interned and sent to work on a sugar beet farm near Lethbridge, Alberta. While living in Picture Butte, Alberta,Yasue married Matsuo Matsumura. Following the war, the whole family moved to Kingston, Ontario where Harding completed his senior year of high school. A few years later, Harding moved to Montreal and his parents joined him. The Barnet Lumber Company also known as the Barnet mill was in operation between 1925 and 1932. The mill was located on Burrard Inlet in the neighbourhood of Barnet and was one of the most successful local employers in Burnaby until the 1930s when the Great Depression resulted in a strike at the mill. The City of Burnaby eventually assumed control of the site including all of the homes when the company failed to pay it's taxes. The city then dismantled the mill and sold the property in two parts - the eastern section would become the Kapoor Sawmills Limited and the western portion, the McColl-Frontenac Oil Company.
