• Fonds
• [197-]-2012

Fonds consist of David McKnight's Canadian Little Magazine and Pocket-size Press archive, reflecting his involvement in documenting the history of this genre of Canadian publishing, and include the pioneering work in the field done past Wynne Francis whose enquiry files form function of the fonds. Through both of their collecting, the David McKnight fonds consists of materials which comprehend the history of Canadian small printing publishing from 1923-2010.

The designation of the series was arrived at after considering the ordering of the material as it was received at Bruce Pare Special Collections. It was clear that at that place was an original ordering of the files, often according to an alphabetical or chronological scheme, and the files had titles. David McKnight separated his files broadly into those associated with his mentor and counselor, Wynne Francis, and his own enquiry/collection files, and as much equally possible, this structure is maintained. Series titles were arrived at afterwards considering the collection in its entirety, and the apparent order implied past McKnight'due south file listings and comments. The fabric was received in two shipments, only was intended as one donation, so some assignment of series and file titles, combining the cloth in the two shipments, was necessary. The records are well-nigh all textual, although in that location are three microfilm reels, 2 cassette tapes, and two photographs.

Taking into consideration both the information provided by David McKnight in a letter to the Head of Bruce Peel Special Collections, and the contents of the records received, half-dozen series and several sub-serial were established to amend facilitate access to the collection.
