Canada
Debuting in 1957, the CHUM Chart was the first record chart in Canada. However, it was only based in Toronto and compiled by a radio station, so I've never seen it used before. The only archive is in book form, listed below. RPM published its first chart in 1964, which should be used over the CHUM Chart. RPM ceased publication in 2000, and the Library of Canada has archived every chart. Around 2000, charts were published online by Jam! with partnership with CANOE and still continues to this day. However, this chart is not archived, so it is not used. Billboard decided to publish the Canadian Hot 100 and Canadian Albums Chart in 2007.

Switzerland
Swiss Music Charts is the official chart company of Switzerland, and Hung Medien is the only known company that archives. There are two types of websites: English and German. Both are formatted a lot differently than the other Hung Medien website and may be difficult to navigate.

United Kingdom
In the United Kingdom, The Official Charts Company is the main charts provider. Their archive is pretty solid, but Chart Stats have a complete archive back to 100 positions. Since Chart Stats is an anonymous source, it has been challenged in the past. Music Week and UKChartPlus have an archive of back to 200 for both positions. Zobbel.de has archived these magazine on their website.

United States
In the United States, the main music provider is Billboard. Since their last site remodel, a lot of their archives have been incomplete. Allmusic is an official, reliable website that can be used to help archive. Allmusic also has other positions that Billboard does not, mainly defunct charts. In the worst-case scenario, a link to Billboard's API database can be used. The API database can be used to find and source any of the charts, especially the Bubbling Unders which are not published by Billboard or archived by Allmusic.
