Harlan Ingersoll Smith joined the staff of the National Museum of Canada in 1911 and retired in 1936.  During those years he laid firm the foundations of the science of archaeology in Canada; first by actual work in the field; and secondly by the establishment of the Archaeological File, which, ideally, contains all that is known of the archaeology of Canada.

The following bibliography of his published work, though large, is almost certainly incomplete, especially in newspaper articles and material contributed to small magazines.  Little of archaeological importance has been left out.
