The sous-fonds reflects Malcolm Lowry’s life and work. Contents include: correspondence (incoming and outgoing), manuscripts (poetry and prose), notes and notebooks, juvenilia and other material published by Lowry, and a variety of textual and audio-visual materials about Lowry produced by friends, family, and Lowry scholars. Within the Letters series, incoming and outgoing, Lowry’s literary agents and editors, including Albert Erskine and Harold Matson, feature prominently.

Poetry and prose manuscripts comprise the bulk of the Malcolm Lowry Papers. Manuscripts frequently include several drafts of a given work as well as notes and notebooks associated with that manuscript. Under the Volcano, October Ferry to Gabriola, and Hear Us O Lord From Heaven Thy Dwelling Place are among the works included in these series.

The Personal Life series includes financial records, art prints which hung on the walls of the Dollarton shacks, notes on source characters by Lowry, and records about Lowry’s life and family collected by UBC.

Audio-visual records include the 1984 film adaptation of Lowry’s Under the Volcano as well as interviews with scholars and friends of the Lowrys and documentaries about Lowry produced by the CBC and National Film Board of Canada (NFB).

The sous-fonds consists primarily of correspondence between Earle Birney and a variety of publishers, magazines, and journals concerning Birney’s attempts to have Lowry’s work published posthumously. The sous-fonds also contains Lowry’s notes on and review of Birney’s 1949 novel, Turvey.

The sous-fonds consists primarily of letters and poems written by Lowry for Atwater, who at the time of writing was addressed as Carol Phillips. The letters and poems were posted between April and September 1939 when Lowry was living in Los Angeles. Several photos of Atwater, Lowry, and Jimmy Osborne (Atwater’s brother) are also included.

The sous-fonds consists primarily of correspondence and articles about Lowry’s works. McConnell kept up correspondence with Margerie Lowry and the Crowleys in particular which spanned several decades. Also included in the sous-fonds is a short story by McConnell based on a visit with the Lowry’s at the Dollarton shack, which was published almost thirty years after Lowry’s death.

The sous-fonds consists of letters from the Lowrys, a partial manuscript of Under the Volcano, and several phonograph records owned by Lowry.

Sous-fonds contains typed copies of approximately 100 letters from Malcolm Lowry to various friends, editors, publishers, and translators of his works. Harold Matson, Albert Erskine, and David Markson are frequently recurring addressees. The only incoming letter to Lowry (also a typed copy) is from Arthur Lowry, Malcolm Lowry’s father.

The sous-fonds also includes a typescript of a prose text of uncertain authorship which in part details Lowry’s 1949 stay at a Vancouver hospital with a broken back and ribs. Excerpts of letters are also included in the prose account.

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.
