- Notes
- "The Ontario Diocesan Library is currently held by the Ontario Diocesan Archives in Kingston, Ontario. There are approximately 470 titles in 800 volumes. The library apparently was established in the 1860s and continued to function until the early twentieth century. At least some of the books were the gift of the Associates of Dr. Bray, while others have the bookplate of Bishop John Travers Lewis. .... The Ontario Diocesan Archives holds accession and loan registers for the library and perhaps other documentation. The future of this library is under discussion. See the note on the library of Bishop Lewis in Section III, below". [N.B. This library was donated to Trinity College, University of Toronto, in 2014.]
