''The Record'' is the only daily (Monday–Friday) English language newspaper based in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada. It serves the Eastern Townships region of that province. Launched on February 9, 1897, by businessman Leonard Channell and originally known as the ''Sherbrooke Daily Record'', it is one of the two last surviving English-language daily newspapers in the French-speaking province, the other being the much larger ''Montreal Gazette''. For the past several years, ''The Record'' has been a daily community newspaper for the anglophone minority in the Eastern Townships, without comprehensive coverage of national and world news. "Talk", or "Talk of the Townships", a weekly television, arts and cultural insert, appears every Friday. Periodic sections focus on individual communities and events within the Record's service area. Future Canadian media barons John Bassett and Conrad Black both got their starts in newspaper ownership as owner and co-owner, respectively, of the ''Sherbrooke Daily Record''. For years ''The Record ''was owned by Black's Hollinger International. In January 2006 it was purchased by Alta Newspaper Group, a partnership of Glacier Ventures International and former Hollinger executive David Radler. ==Fire== In January 1999, a fire broke out in the Record's offices, which were located on Delorme Street in Sherbrooke. The building and its contents, including the newspapers computers and presses, suffered heavy losses. The newspaper was temporarily moved to a location in nearby Lennoxville without its own press. A replacement press was eventually purchased and in June 2000 the newspaper moved into its current location on Galt Street East, in Sherbrooke. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Record (Sherbrooke)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
