Social Studies curriculum materials - within the Alberta School Curriculum Historical Bibliography 1885-1985 (Secondary Resources) Collection. The Secondary Social Studies curriculum materials in the bibliography are divided into chronological divisions: 1885-1936, 1937-1945, 1946-1955, 1956-1970, 1971-1979, 1980-1985 and are indicated the general notes.

The records in this series span a range of years, with imprint collected from as early as 1915, to a Technocracy article published in the mid-1990’s. The photographs and films in the series are commercial productions, and all of the records are in good physical condition.

This series of records, grouped together under the broad banner of ‘Causes’ and Personal records, has been arranged in the following sub-series: Seniors’ Issues; Peace Issues; Human Rights and Social Justice Issues; and Other records which includes Soviet-Ukraine material and a small smattering of personal records. The records in this series highlight the many social and political causes Doug Tomlinson supported and actively participated in, and provide a good overview of the social climate in Alberta and Canada during the time period in which these records were created. Doug Tomlinson actively collected material from the USSR/Soviet Ukraine, and there is a fascinating set of photographs and 35 mm film produced from various sources, illustrating aspects of life in these regions during primarily the 1960’s.

Includes: ca, ,80 m of textual records, 15 films, 399 photographs.

File titles were derived from original file titles.

Series consists of contact sheets, slides, negatives, colour and black and white photo prints arranged chronologically by production.

Series consists of slides depicting African art, architecture, and other material culture, etc. Other subjects represented include China and European art generally. Some of these slides have apparently come from commercial sources. Most of this material was collected by Andre Nitecki to support his teaching and research activities; Arnold collected some of it.

This is a small series, but represents another source of creative output from Wilfred Watson. Drawings, watercolors, pastel and crayon sketches, etc. cover the papers he writes on; even the stationery he uses for letters includes photocopies of his drawings as part of the letterhead. This series consists of 10 large sketchpads filled with drawings; some of the sketchpads are made of construction paper, while others have a heavier art paper composition. There are also files of loose drawings, and several files of drawings done on smaller pieces of colored cardboard. Reference is also made in this series to a box of drawings Watson completed to accompany his "Jenny Blake" poetry material.

The material in Series 2 is framed in drawings and artwork, including line drawings, crayon sketches, pastels, and watercolors. Wilfred Watson loved to draw; his notebooks are filled with drawings and watercolor paintings that illustrate the material he was working on or thoughts he wanted to visualize. Drawings and sketches are also a part of the notebooks in Series 1 and sometimes on the reverse of the writing drafts found in Series 2. Occasionally, drawings are included with the letters he sent to Sheila Watson and other correspondents. This series, however, is composed of the sketchbooks and files of drawings he maintained separately from his textual material. As Shirley Neuman writes in her description of the Watson archive: "the drawings are vigorous and spontaneous; they often use allegorical figures to make political comments."

Between 1882 and 1884, Pearce's duties as the Inspector of Dominion Lands Agencies made him the field agent for the Dominion Lands Board, based in Winnipeg. The Board's most important function was to rule on uncertain claims and on schemes not covered by normal routine. William Pearce's involvement began with the land claims of the Metis and white settlers who had settled along the North Saskatchewan River prior to the Institution of surveys. Pearce was subsequently called on to deal with similar problems at such diverse localities as Morley, Pincher Creek, Lee's Creek (Cardston), Lac la Biche, and Lac Ste. Anne.

Pearce's interest in settlement extended beyond his land claims work. As statistician for the Canadian Pacific Railway, he served as an advisor to the Natural Resources Department of the company. In fulfilling that role, Pearce collected extensive material on the twin questions of settlement and immigration, particularly after his work with the Economic and Development Commission in 1916.

Four senior editors were hired to organize the writing of The Canadian Encyclopedia, one for each of the main topic areas: Arts, Humanities, Science and Technology, and Social Sciences. Editors were assigned an editor-researcher to assist with their section. The Senior Editors, in consultation with the Managing Director, Editor-in-Chief, and consultants, derived subject areas and article lists. The articles then had to be contracted out to contributors for writing, and received articles edited and reviewed by expert readers. The process involved many tasks and involved a great deal of correspondence and memoranda. The series is largely textual, and includes collected imprint and published material used as reference sources by the editors.

This series has been organized into four sub-series representing the broad topic areas headed by each senior editor. Series 4.1 is the Arts Editor's files (Diana Selsor/Palting; Rosemary Shipton); Series 4.2 is the Humanities Editor's files (James Ogilvy); Series 4.3 is the Science and Technology Editor's files (Adriana Davies) and Series 4.4 is the Social Sciences Editor's files (Patricia Finlay; Michel Boyer). While each editor had unique filing systems, the type of material collected by each editor is very similar although extent does vary. Each senior editor appeared to maintain binders of tabbed files of correspondence, meeting minutes, reports, and policies and procedures. Files maintained by the editor-researchers are also found in this series. Files related more specifically to the editors' relationships with their contributors and consultants is found in Series 7.

The bulk of this collection of correspondence was written between 1838 and 1862, and addressed to Reverend John Smithurst, “Indian Settlement, Red River, North America.” The “Indian Settlement” was the home of Chief Peguis and his people, the Saulteaux, located at Netley Creek, a branch of the Red River south of Lake Winnipeg. Following his resignation in 1851, Rev. Smithurst immigrated to Canada West and settled in Elora and then Minto in what is now Ontario.

Rev. Smithurst was an Anglican missionary sent by the Church Missionary Society from England to Rupert’s Land to convert the First Nations and Metis peoples of the area known broadly as the Red River Settlement; modern-day Winnipeg, Manitoba encompasses many sites that made up the settlement. Ministering to the “Indians” and “Half-Breeds,” Rev. Smithurst was one of the handful of missionaries west of Canada during a period of social and political unrest, economic upheaval, starvation, disease, racism and classism. Rev. Smithurst was in contact with many influential people of the time, including Henry Budd and James Settee, the first Indigenous men to be ordained by the Anglican church in North America; Reverend William Cockran; Reverend Ezekiel Gilbert Gear, chaplain at Fort Snelling in modern-day Minnesota; Reverend William Mason, Rossville Mission Press printer; David Anderson, first bishop of Rupert’s Land; and Duncan Finlayson, governor of Assiniboia.

In the correspondence within this collection, missionaries privately share personal frustrations with their efforts to “civilize” and convert Indigenous peoples, while struggling to survive the landscape and navigate social conflicts.

Acquired with Rev. Smithurst's letters, and included here, are several miscellaneous letters, as well as correspondence for the Reverend C.E. Thomson, who succeeded Rev. Smithurst at the Elora parish, and correspondence for the Reverend Adam Townley, step-father to Rev. Thomson. Correspondents include: John Strachan, first bishop of Toronto; Alexander Neil Bethune, second bishop of Toronto; F.D. Fauquier, first bishop of Algoma; and George Whitaker, first provost of Trinity College in Toronto.

The Research and Publication records comprise the largest series in the L.H. Thomas fonds. While primarily textual in format, the series also contains maps, photographs, and imprint items. The photographs and maps are stored separately for reasons of conservation, but are described within the sub-series they relate to L.H. Thomas maintained an extensive set of clipping files which he used as a resource for teaching and writing. The sheer volume of newspaper clippings in these files meant they could not be photocopied at this time, so the acidity level in the files is high. Where possible, the clippings were placed in Mylar to protect the documents surrounding them. Generally, the records are in good physical shape. The Research and Publication files were described in one series because of their inter-relatedness. The research files would have also been important to L.H. Thomas' teaching, as he taught courses in the same areas he researched and wrote about. Only those files, however, that were clearly titled 'lecture note' material were described in the teaching sub-series (2-2). The remainders of the source files are described as part of series 3. Sub-series within the Research and Publication records include L.H. Thomas; Books; Booklets; Volumes; Reviews; Correspondence with Publishers; General Research notes; Source Material; and Talks and Addresses. The series provides a good overview of L.H. Thomas' research methods, and steps necessary to seeing a paper or book published.
