This sub-series also contains aperture cards which consist of images of original registers. Each aperture card consists of a microfiche image held in a paper index card. In most cases each image is one page of the original register. The registers are also known as RG15 aperture card books 266 to 269.

Books 266 and 267 list settlement lots in the Northwest Territories. They are organized alphabetically by settlement name and then by lot number. Books 268 and 269 list settlement lots in the Yukon Territory. They are organized by Group number and then by lot number. Book 268 includes Groups 1 through 987. Book 269 includes groups 1002 through 1995. In all books, each entry lists the lot number, file number, name of individual or organization, disposition of land (ex. "land sale" or "lease"), date, price, reference number, and remarks.

Custodial history:

The aperture cards in this sub-series were created by a successor to the Department of the Interior sometime between 1948 and 1970. They were copied from original registers and ledgers and the originals were then destroyed. The aperture cards were then transferred to the National Archives in the early 1970s.

RG15 Aperture Card books were available in the LAC reference room until January 2023.

Accruals:

No further accruals are expected.
