David McKnight writes that he began collecting books published by the Coach House Press, a Toronto, Ontario literary small press in 1972. As he further explains: “Coach House emerged as one of the leading venues dedicated to publishing Canada’s nascent literary avant-garde.” In the summer of 1996, McKnight signed a contract with National Archives and Library of Canada to curate and prepare a three-dimensional exhibit for the Coach House Press. The exhibit used papers held by the National Library (literary manuscripts), and some loaned material.
This series includes the files related to planning and setting up the exhibition (New Wave Canada Exhibition) for the National Library and Archives, as well as general archives related to the history of the Coach House Press.
Title based on contents of series.
The New Wave Canada exhibition files include correspondence leading up to the issuing of the Library and Archives exhibit contract, including business correspondence, a draft exhibition proposal and drafts of the catalog, and cover proofs associated with the development and publishing of an exhibition catalogue and website.
