Unnumbered prints and negatives

Sub-series consists of photographic prints and negatives that were not assigned standard control numbers by the creating department (see sub-series 1-4 for description of the numbering system used by LIDC and its predecessors). Subjects include SFU architecture, campus scenes, and photos of university community members (Pauline Jewett, Chris Davies, David Skulski, A.J. Grants, Paul Cote, Wolfgang Youngrau, James B. Griffin, and R.W. Wylie). File 1 contains a series of photographs from the life of SFU Chancellor Gordon Shrum, including a World War I portrait and photos of his years at UBC and BC Hydro; some of these images were used in the the film produced by the Audio-Visual Centre This is SFU (1972).

While there is some overlap, print calendars and born-digital records in this sub-series do not necessarily correlate.

First Things First project records

Sub-series consists of records created by Adbusters Media Foundation during the First Things First project advocacy campaign. Building on the 1964 manifesto of British designer Ken Garland, the First Things First project was re-launched by Adbusters in 1999 to advocate against the use of graphic design to promote unethical products and industries.

In 2008, Adbusters launched the One World, One Flag design competition as a sub-campaign within the First Things First movement. In this sub-campaign, Adbusters called on designers from around the world to submit a flag design that embodies the ideal of global citizenship. In 2018, Adbusters brought the First Things first campaign to Emily Carr University, through an event called the "Emily Carr Jam."

Paper records include posters, design concepts, sketches, collages, internal memos, and campaign strategies and plans. Born-digital records include digital graphics, press releases, emails, "One World, One Flag" design submissions, and digital photographs.

These include the "PoWeRShift Media Campaigns" pamphlet (a subsidiary of Adbusters which created advocacy commercials in the 1990s), the "Cyborg Manifesto," and a 5-part advocacy pamphlet series titled "Field Guide to a New World Order."

A born-digital version of each "Field Guide to a New World Order" is included as an access copy of these pamphlets. Access copies of the "PoWeRShift Media Campaigns" and the "Cyborg Manifesto" pamphlets are created from digital scans provided by Adbusters.

Hops: research subject files

Sub-series consists of research materials relating to the BC hops industry. Some of this material goes back to Evans' work on his thesis in the late 1980s, but much appears to have been accumulated in the context of his work on the "Brewers Gold" project, a travelling exhibit on the history of hops in BC (see sub-series 2).

Topics documented include the development of the industry in various regions of BC (the Saanich peninsula, Squamish, the Fraser Valley, the Okanagan); prominent BC hops growers and associations including the Canadian Hops Growers Ltd., Henry Ord Hops Dealers, John I. Hass Hop Company, the Horth family, William Towner, Thomas Lee, the Downey family, and Isaac Cloake; Indigenous involvement in the industry; production techniques, labour relations and strikes; Japanese Canadian and Indo-Canadian growers and pickers, including the use of Japanese Canadian workers during World War II and the Japanese Canadian internment.

Records include Evans' correspondence, notes and working papers, and speaking notes; interview notes, and some interview transcripts (file 16); copies of newspaper and magazine articles, excerpts from books and publications; family history and genealogical information relating to BC hop growers; and Evans' paper on the "Origins of the Hops Industry in the Pacific Northwest" (undated, file 12).

Archival materials found in the sub-series include photocopies of business correspondence, minutes, memoranda of agreement, and reports relating to the Canadian Hops Growers Ltd and Henry Ord Hops Dealers; original payrolls cheques of the Canadian Hops Growers Ltd from 1931; and an original business card of William Towner, Pioneer Hop Grower, North Saanich.

Joint university / college projects

Sub-series consists of records relating to projects undertaken jointly by SFU and other universities and colleges, including Fraser Valley College, Cariboo College, the Shuswap / Secwepemc Cultural Education Society (SCES), and The University President's Council (TUPC), a forum comprising the presidents and senior administrators of British Columbia's universities. Records include correspondence, reports, proposals, budgets, meeting minutes, agreements, and notes and working papers.

Numbered contact sheets, negatives and prints

Sub-series consists of photographic negatives, contact sheets and prints created by staff photographers of LIDC and its predecessors. Contact sheets are pages of thumbnail images developed from the negatives. Contact sheets were organized by the creators by year, assigning a unique year-based serial number to each sheet (e.g. IMC 72062 = contact sheet 62 from 1972 created by the Instructional Media Centre). It is the contact sheets (rather than individual images) that were indexed (see note below on Finding aids).

For a few years (1987-1989), prints were developed from the negatives and filed by the same contact-sheet number system. Not all contact sheet negatives in these years were developed into prints; and the number of the prints post-1989 is very small. In the file-level contact sheet descriptions, the Physical storage section indicates the availability and container number of the contact sheet and any associated negatives and prints. In a small number of cases, contact sheets or negative may be missing, meaning they were not transferred to the Archives.

For photo subjects, see the parent series description for F-18-1, Photographic materials.

Note that the 1963 negatives pre-date the construction of the university and were later incorporated by IMC into its photo system. There are no contact sheets for the 1963 images.

Documentaries

Sub-series consists of one documentary produced by LIDC, From C to C: Chinese Canadian Stories of Migration. The sub-series was established in 2018 to accommodate the transfer of this production, with anticipation of future transfers of similar material. The sub-series, however, is now closed.

Digital videotapes

Sub-series consists of digital video footage of campus events taken by LIDC staff. LIDC began using digital video cameras ca. 2002. Files 1-8 represent earlier analog materials later transferred to DVCam; file 109 is 1965 footage shot by CBC and transferred in 2006. Events documented include public lectures and readings, dance and theatre performances, building dedications, award and special ceremonies, anniversaries and commemorations.

Slides

Sub-series consists of slides created by LIDC photographers, maintained in alphabetically organized files based on subject. The exact relationship between the slides and the negatives and contact sheets in sub-series 4 is not clear; slides may have been created from the original negatives, but (with very few exceptions) there is no cross-reference on the slide back to a negative. For the general range of subjects, see parent series description (F-18-1).

Printed works portfolio

Series consists of publications and other printed materials created by LIDC and its predecessors for SFU client departments. LIDC graphic designers worked with SFU departments and faculty members to create prints materials to support university communications, faculty teaching, research and publication, campus events and departmental programs. This series comprises sample copies retained by LIDC as a kind of portfolio of work. The dates range from 1999 to 2014, with the bulk concentrating on the years 2008-2012.

Publications and events represented include SFU Open Houses in 2008 and 2012; the President's annual Faculty Lecture (2006-2010) and the Distinguished Leadership Award ceremonies (2007-2012); reports to the SFU community by the President, the Alumni Association, University Advancement, and SFU Woodward's Vancity Office of Community Engagement; SFU News supplements for the Office of Aboriginal People (2011, 2012); books produced on special occasions to honor SFU community members, including President Michael Stevenson (2010), Chancellor Brandt C. Louie (2011), and donor Djavad Mowafaghian (2011); alumni and donor events; academic programs and workshops, including the Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing annual Summer Workshops (1999, 2007-2010); and a book project for Continuing Studies entitled History of Sex Work Vancouver: Who We Were / Who We Are (ca. 2006).
