The Memory of the World Register ranges from historical treasures like the Magna Carta and the Bayeux Tapestry, to the papers of Hans Christian Andersen, Louis Pasteur and Winston Churchill, among others. Founded in 1992 to promote and protect the world’s documentary heritage through preservation and access, the Memory of the World Programme includes in its register only those documentary collections that meet its strict criteria of “world significance and outstanding universal value.” note2 LAC and the University of Toronto Libraries, which holds McLuhan’s personal library, made the joint submission to the UNESCO Memory of the World Programme.

The McLuhan archive and library is one of only six Canadian entries in the prestigious UNESCO register, and the first documentary heritage to be inscribed from LAC’s collection. Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980) was a Professor of English at the University of Toronto but is best known as a cultural theorist and public intellectual. The McLuhan archive at Library and Archives Canada (LAC) has now attracted another form of international attention: UNESCO recognized its global significance in 2017 by inscribing his personal archive and library in the Memory of the World Register! They are drawn by the desire to understand the inspiration and ideas of the Canadian “prophet” of the digital age who foretold the impact of electronic media and coined phrases like “the global village,” “the medium is the message,” and “surfing” for information. The Marshall McLuhan archive attracts researchers from around the world to the reading room of Library and Archives Canada.

Some e-portfolio applications permit varying degrees of audience access, so the same portfolio might be used for multiple purposes. This consortium is an organization aimed to make Michigan one of the leaders in integrating technology into the training of young professionals. For example, in places like Michigan students can earn the MCOATT (Michigan Certificate of Outstanding Achievement in Teaching Technology) for submitting an electronic portfolio which demonstrates evidence of technology being used in the classroom. Many universities and schools are currently working to make sure that students are gaining practice and experience with electronic portfolios so that they are able to use them to the best of their ability. In this sense, students' use and comfort with the web at times can be a hindrance if they are not taught to use electronic portfolios in the correct fashion, suggests Lane.
The electronic portfolio, on the other hand, is a more formal setting where students must apply both their knowledge of how the web works and the message they want to convey. Today, many students are using multimedia such as Facebook, Twitter, and texting-all informal settings. This helps people to become better critical thinkers and helps them to develop their writing and multimedia skills. People are also forced to reflect on what they have learned and how they plan to build and improve in the future. The individual is then in charge of their learning and the choice of where to demonstrate their proficiency. This is in large part because people must focus on their collective work, think about how it will be portrayed, and what the work says about them as an individual. E-portfolios also help to foster an independent and autonomous way of thinking, according to Strivens.
