Printed Materials, Works By Lowry
Series consists of published works by Lowry organized by publication date. Contents include: juvenilia, published primarily in the Leys Public School's journal, the Leys Fortnightly, poetry and short stories published in anthologies, and poetry and short stories published in magazines and journals, during Lowry's lifetime and posthumously. Posthumous publications were predominantly the result of submissions and requests made by Earle Birney and Margerie Lowry to various magazines and journals, though in many cases Lowry's work was sought out for publication in anthologies and collections of poetry and short stories, and for spotlight features about Lowry (see the Earle Birney Papers sous-fonds for correspondence about some posthumous publication of Lowry's writing).
Series consists of notebooks not associated with any particular work by Lowry and Margerie, organized chronologically and by location. Both Lowry and Margerie kept notebooks, mostly palm sized and bound with staples, which they filled with thoughts and ideas, some of which developed into poems and manuscripts. Contents include bound notebooks, loose pages, and typewritten fragments of notes.
