This scrapbook contains predominantly newsclippings and b&w photographs. It also contains the souvenir program produced/or this triennial conference, as well as the programs/menus for the dinners hosted for the C.W.P.C delegates in Vancouver by Eaton's, by the “Vancouver Sun” and by the Province Ontario. Also included in this file are maps of the Vancouver area, a guidebook to Vancouver, and ephemera. Other materials include a ribbon, which was most likely worn by C.W.P.C members on board the H.M.C.S. Crescent, the ship that brought conference delegates from Vancouver to Victoria.

The photographs depict sites in Vancouver, Victoria, as well as other places in B.C. and in Alberta that the conference delegates saw on their travels through Western Canada. Also shown here are photographs taken on board the H.M.C.S Crescent.

The clippings report on the events which constituted the Triennial Conference of the C.W.P.C. in Vancouver including the presentations given by various speakers, discussions about the C.W.P.C 's Memorial Award open to women journalists in all fields of writing, the Oriental Sun dinner, and the trip made by conference delegates to Victoria on the H.M.C.S Crescent.

The scrapbook also includes articles on prominent women journalists who attended the conference including Isabel Dingman, the only woman journalism instructor at the time, and Annie Mathewson, women's editor of The Gleaner, who received a scroll at the conference in recognition of half a century in the Fourth Estate.

Also among these clippings is an article on Marie Holmes editor of Chatelaine Magazine and Director of the Chatelaine Institute. This scrapbook also contains a column written by Eva-Lis Wuorio, Maclean's Magazine writer, in the New Westerner. She attended the conference also and in this column writes about her impressions of the West Coast comparing it to East Coast Canada.

Other articles that appeared in the local newspapers during the conference focus on the impressions made by the visiting women journalists including male reporters' views on the visitors.

Loose items contained in this scrapbook include a letter written by Sybil Watts Smith, the compiler of this scrapbook, to Kay Rex, on Feb. 24, 1993 stating that enclosed are two packages containing negatives that Kay Rex requested. These include three negatives of Clarice Tapson from about 1950 and 9 negatives from the C.W.P.C Triennial Conference on the West Coast in 1949.

Also includes five b&w photographs taken at a C.W.P.C conference in Ottawa in 1947. Individuals are identified in all photographs.

Includes clippings, a small amount of correspondence,and ephemera relating primarily to Eric McCormack's personal interests.

File contains clippings (originals and photocopies) relating to miscellaneous themes. Some of these clippings appear to have been kept by Eric McCormack because they relate to local literary events or other items of literary interest:

• the Spring 1990 issue of Printout, Words Worth Books' newsletter. The events section features information on a Mennonite/s Writing in Canada Conference on Canadian Literature, an event hosted in May 1990 by Conrad Grebel college together with The New Quarterly. Other local literary events listed here include an evening with Robert Kroetsch at the Seagram Museum, and Joseph Gold and Jane Urquhart book launch also at Seagram's.
• the Waterloo Chronicle, Wednesday, 8 August 1990, page 9, appears to have been kept by Eric McCormack, because of an article featuring the winning entries in this newspaper's inaugural Short Story Contest.
• another clipping featuring information on the 1992 bestsellers (Waterloo Chronicle, Wednesday, 6 January 1993, page 15).
• reviews of works by writers connected with St. Jerome's College. Two clippings feature information on the literary achievements and works of Stan Fogel, a professor of English at St. Jerome's College, and of Kevin Land, a playwright and graduate of St. Jerome's College.
• another clipping, which appeared in The Maclean's Guide to Canadian Universities in 1997 and which was faxed to Eric McCormack by his publisher Penguin Books Canada. This clipping focuses on the University of Waterloo with emphasis on its co-op program and its academic courses.

She also wishes him every success.
• a short note to Eric McCormack from Paul relates to specifications for the length of a piece to be written by the author, and the date by which it is required. It would seem that the piece in question was most likely a review for Books in Canada.

These flyers provide information on the goals of this publication, and on the content and themes which are contained in this magazine, which features "new directions in Canadian writing".

Additionally, the information on the English department of St. Jerome's College contained in this calendar (pp. 52-55) includes a portrait photograph of Eric McCormack and information on the courses he teaches.
