The 8 series under this fonds include: 1 Treaties; 2 History; 3 Justice; 4 Government; 5 Education; 6 Land; 7 Media; 8 Current Conditions; 9 Finding Aids; 10 OTC Administration.
Most of the material is included in a few series (Glenn Lunn Circle, Friendly Neighbors Club, 4H Club) - many books of club minutes, events or projects. Other series, such as the lodges, RCMP, Postmasters Association have only a few items.
This fonds includes correspondence with colleagues, including letters, faxes, and e-mails written and received from the 1960s through to the present (2023) that cover research developments in the field of Canadian archaeology, both provincially and nationally. Pertains to Dr. Meyer’s time as a student, at the Saskatchewan Research Council, and in the Department of Anthropology and Archaeology at the University of Saskatchewan and involvement with the Saskatchewan Archaeological Society. Any mention of photographs, papers, articles, maps etc. in the correspondence were not included in the donation and are therefore absent from the files, except where specifically noted.
In this collection there are many photographs of the school houses, children and staff, as well as textual records detailing their construction and operation.
This fonds contains materials primarily relating to Moyer’s musical career. It includes reel-to-reel tapes of sessions, live night club performances, dances and other concerts, studio recordings, and interviews. In addition there are numerous early vinyl recordings, posters, memorabilia, and some personal biographical materials.

As per his faculty bio his “research areas are “Bohemia” in Britain 1815-1914 – that is the social history of the artistic and literary professions and their relationship to the idea of Bohemia as a social and cultural, as well as actual physical space (particularly in London). Other continuing and related research interests are Victorian journalism and journalists, and Victorian novels and novelists.”

This fonds reflects Brock Silversides’ interests in historical and contemporary culture, with particular emphasis on the history of photography, music, and film. It contains research materials used for eight of his books, including both published and unpublished images taken from a variety of archives, as well as from Brock’s personal collection. His numerous articles represent an excellent resource on photographers and the history of photography, as do several of the public exhibitions which he curated. In addition, his collections of historical newspapers, film, posters -- particularly for local musicians, Canadian film and Canadian artists -- represent a useful collection for anyone interested in these aspects of Canadian culture and society.
This fonds includes materials collected primarily as a result of Bob Cole’s student days at the University of Saskatchewan and STM. The University Publications are particularly useful as these items are not duplicated in the University Publication Collection.
