i found this on the BC Archives site:
Does the BC Archives lend material through interlibrary loan?
The BC Archives' library and archival collections are non-circulating and therefore unavailable through interlibrary loan. However, if you can provide an exact reference to a book or an archival record held by the BC Archives, we may be able to provide photocopies at the usual cost.

do you know of other institutions which may have these reels also?
there must be a way to get a hold of this info, i just cannot find the link.
can you help?

I live on Vancouver Island in BC and our local Family History Society Library has the BC Vital Events films for use by members and non-members (for a small drop-in fee).  I don't know where in BC you live, but it might be worth a try to contact your local or nearby FHS or genealogy group and inquire if they have the films.  Our FHS library is manned by very helpful volunteers and you can print copies of the Registration forms if desired (for a small fee).  I have found the Registration forms contain a wealth of information.

i live just south of penticton which has a FHL but for me to travel back and forth there is difficult. and it is a very small office and wonder if they would even stock that reel. that is why i thought i could borrow it and view at our local library.

Another option for you to consider......

I don't know whether you have a Family History Center (the familysearch.org folks) near you? You can find out on their website.

If you do, you should also be able to order photocopies directly from Utah through the Family History Center. You use the "GSU" number for this and the center should have the form and would help you fill it out. The cost (when I used the service in the spring) was $2.00 US per record, with a minimum charge of $4.00, and you can order up to 8 records at a time. The service was quite fast if I remember correctly.

Added: I looked on familysearch.org and there appears to be a Family History Center in Penticton (is this the FHL you referred to a couple of posts back?)

Unfortunately, the actual registrations are not available to view on line so you must order the film and view it at the library.  The microfilm containing all the registrations is available at Vancouver Public Library.  So I use the index to find the film and then view the relevant registration.  I know libraries in major centres in BC (Kamloops, Prince George, Kelowna etc) have the film as well and I thought BC Archives provided them to other smaller libraries.  But I guess not.  I would try your local library as well as they might be able to get something on an inter library loan.  Not sure if that is any more or less convenient than a trip to the FHL in your area.

hi
i have been in contact with the vancouver library and am in process of getting ready to order the reels. many thanks for all your suggestions.

need lookup:
I am now on the search for when Antonio DeFeo emigrated.
I found 3 during 1855-1900 to NY where their last residence is S Stefano.

I was wondering if anyone could find out more info on ancestry. i am not member of ancestry so cannot.

Antonio Defeo age 25 last residence S Stefano del Sole destination: New Rochelle NY manifest #82945

Antonio Defoe age 48 last residence S Stefano del Sole destination: NY

i just heard from vancouver library and they do not loan out their civil registration reels. i can request a copy  @ $10/page if i have the film and other numbers. i would have like to browse the various reels to see if i could find a link between the Defoe (DeFeo) living in Revelstoke. I am sure they are all connected. oh well..there are always bumps in the road.

I did notice that in the list of the ones you looked up for me....there were a couple that did not show in the index search. but all that you sent was most helpful. thanks again.
