		Among the most valuable, however, is its publication of the Canadian Foreign Relations Index (CFRI), an index of the more than 46,000 items on the subject of Canada's foreign relations that were published between 1945 and 2002.
		Despite these types of oversights, which hopefully will be corrected in future updates, the CFRI remains the most complete bibliography of sources on Canada's diplomatic history and foreign relations available.
		Still, for those individuals with research or other interests in Canadian foreign policy and international affairs in the decades since the end of the Second World War, it is well worth the expense.
