In 1968, following the death of Conrad Poirier, Guy Côté, filmmaker and film collector, acquired this holdings. In 1972, he give the majority of the photographs of the holdings at the Bibliothèque nationale du Québec, which transfers the same year, the Archives nationales du Québec in Montreal. At the time, Mr. Côté, a founder of the Cinémathèque québécoise, kept some of his personal papers in the offices of the organization. In the late 1990s, about 1,000 negatives attributed to Conrad Poirier and corresponding to the series "News" and "Radio" Conrad Poirier holdings were found at the Cinémathèque québécoise, having probably been misplaced before the original donation by Guy Côté in 1972. Following the identification of the negatives, the Cinémathèque has transferred them to the Archives nationales du Québec in 1999.
