James MacFarlane Daniells was born in England in 1867. He came to Canada before the turn of the century but returned to England after a short time. In 1910, after some business reverses, he emigrated with his family to Victoria, B.C. where he worked as a builder, first in James Bay, then on Cook Street, and eventually he built a home on Cochrane Street where he lived until his death in 1951. Mr. Daniells was an overseer in the Gospel Hall and was a devout student of the Bible. Constance Maynard Daniells, nee Stevens, was born in England in 1876. In 1901 she married James Daniells, and they had one son, James Roy Daniells, who was born in 1902. She died in 1957. Constance and James joined the Plymouth Brethren in Victoria. The Plymouth Brethren were a sect of Christian believers originating in the early 19th century in Ireland. Brethren ideas of baptism were differing (RD was baptised by immersion) and they expected the second coming of Christ. The Lord's Supper was observed each Sunday. The Brethren had a tendency to follow new leaders and to divide to form new congregations. They were basically fundamentalist and considered the Scriptures the only true guide. There were no officers in the Victoria Hall. James Daniells was one of the "overseers" for a time. The privileges and duties of the ministry depended on the ability of the members.
The sous-fonds consists of correspondence (including many letters from Roy Daniells), journals, legal documents, financial papers, maps, greeting cards, newspaper clippings, verses and family information of James and Constance Daniells. There is also a series of records relating to the Plymouth Brethren, both in London and in Victoria, B.C. including incorporation documents, tracts, sermons, notes, hymn books, bibles, booklets etc. Photographs and postcards have been kept with the Roy Daniells collections.

The Librarian's Office is the administrative centre of the UBC Library, and in its early years, all administrative activities were based there. However, as the Library became decentralized, these activities were devolved to the relevant branches and divisions. At the same time, the University Librarian's administrative burden increased, so a series of Assistant University Librarians were appointed, each with defined areas of responsibility, including Public Services, Collections, Technical Services and Systems, and Administrative Services.
The sous-fonds consists of records generated by the Librarian's Office and include correspondence (both internal and external), reports, minutes, memorandums, notes, budgets and other financial records, architectural plans, published materials, publicity materials (brochures, newspapers clippings), scrapbooks, and photographs. The records are arranged in thirteen series, six of which are based on the tenures of University Librarians: John Ridington, W. Kaye Lamb, Neal Harlow, Basil Stuart-Stubbs, Douglas McInnes, and Ruth Patrick. Four other series are based on the Assistant University Librarian positions for Public Services, Technical Services and Systems, Administrative Services, and Collections. The series "Librarian's Office - General," consists of records that overlap the tenures of more than one University Librarian. Most series are, in turn, further subdivided into sub-series. Included at the beginning of the General series are loan request records from McGill University College of B.C library. The Irving K. Barber Learning Centre series documents the Library's involvement in the planning and development of the Centre, which replaced the Main Library. The Development Office series documents the Library's fundraising function that supports various projects and programs of other branches and divisions. The Assistant University Librarian for Collections series was originally erroneously identified as the"Collections Division sous-fond."

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.

Carol Coates was born in 1906 in Japan, where her parents were missionaries. She received her early education in Japan and later attended the University of British Columbia. Her future husband, Eugene Cassidy, and Roy Daniells became close friends, sharing a love of literature. The Cassidys were married in 1930 and returned to Japan, where they remained for some years. The correspondence with Daniells is romantic, savouring of spiritual and poetic inspiration and unrequited love (she called him "Dante" and signed herself "Beatrice"). After returning from Japan, Coates taught in Toronto and was connected with Steiner education in New York, England and Edinburgh. She published two books of poetry, Fancy Free and Invitation to Mood.
Eugene Cassidy was also born in Japan to missionary parents, was educated in Japan, and attended British Columbia University. He returned to Japan in 1930, where he taught school and became intensely interested in photography. He and his family came to Canada in 1938, and Cassidy began work as a photographer in Toronto. He and Coates later separated, and Cassidy went to New York to become a successful contract photographer for Conde Nash. His photography, particularly his Japanese landscape work, has received considerable recognition, and in 1981 there was a retrospective of his work at the Art Gallery of Ontario. However, because of his frequent moves, many of his Japanese photographs have disappeared, and it is probable that some of the small prints in this collection are unique.
The sous-fonds consist of letters, hand-made poetry books, photographs, a photograph album, and an album of Japanese "shugibukuso," envelopes the Japanese use to present money. The correspondence dates from 1930 to 1953, the majority of the letters being written in the 1930s from Japan.
The materials in this group of papers were segregated from the main series primarily because they were fragile and easy to use. The correspondence was initially been in chronological order by year with other correspondence. The photographs and small poetry booklets, however, had been kept separately. A large portion of the correspondence between Daniells and Coates was returned to Carol Coates in 1942 and subsequently destroyed.

Providing reference services for its patrons - helping them find research materials and teaching them how to use the Library - is one of the Library's core functions. In 1920 Frances Woodworth was appointed the first "Superintendant of Reading Room and Reference Librarian." Reference services expanded rapidly, and by 1937 a separate Reference Division, headed by Anne M. Smith, had been established. The Division was responsible for coordinating all reference services until 1960 when it was disbanded and its staff and services distributed among the newly-created subject divisions. There was an addition to this sous-fonds of 5 cm of textual material by Associate University Librarian, Research, Lea Starr, in January 2020.
The sous-fonds consists of the Division's monthly and annual reports and minutes of its staff meetings, bound into six volumes. Included with Associate University Librarian Lea Starr's materials is correspondence regarding the Tsilhot'in Archive, cIRcle Collections related files, Koerner Library renovations and terms of reference for the Art in the Library Task Group.

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 Library first began to offer services in support of the Department of University Extension in 1935, loaning books to persons enrolled in extension courses. It was initially the responsibility of the Reference Division, and later the Circulation Division, and did not become an administratively separate division until the 1940s. In 1949 the Extension Library also began mailing books to students enrolled in correspondence courses. In 1952 it became strictly a mailing library for students outside the Vancouver and Victoria areas, serving credit-course students, drama groups, and the general public. By 1965 the public library system around British Columbia had evolved enough to allow the book-mailing service to be discontinued. Still, drama groups and correspondence students - and services for the drama groups also were soon phased out. Since then, the Extension Library has continued to provide reading materials for the University's extra-sessional and distance education students.
The sous-fonds consists of records created by the Extension Library in the course of its activities and includes correspondence, reports, and statistical data. It is arranged in two series: General Files and "In-Service Books," the latter dealing with books required for distance education courses.

The sous-fonds is predominantly composed of a partial manuscript of Under the Volcano, including annotated chapters and notes. Correspondence is from Lowry and people in the publishing industry whose employers either helped to publish or rejected Under the Volcano.

The Gifts and Exchanges Division was established in 1965 to take the responsibility from Acquisitions for accepting gifts from individuals and organizations and arranging exchanges of books and periodicals with other libraries. Walter Harrington was the first Division Head and was succeeded in turn by Linda Joe (Kwong) (1968-1971), Joan Selby (1971-1973), and Graham Elliston (1973-1994). After Elliston's retirement, and as part of an overall reorganization of the Library, the Division was abolished, and its functions were distributed among the other branches and service divisions.
The Acquisitions Division maintained records on gifts and exchanges until 1965. The older records were then maintained in their original order, while records created by the new Gifts and Exchanges Division were placed in a new filing system. This process was repeated when Graham Elliston became Division Head. Records dating from before 1973 were transferred to the University Archives in 1979, and the rest of the sous-fonds was acquired through the Librarian's Office in 1994.
The sous-fonds consists of records generated in the course of arranging donations to the Library, exchanges of materials with other institutions, and monetary appraisals of these materials. It includes correspondence, reports, lists of publications, financial records, and printed materials. The records are arranged in the following series: Exchanges and Serials, Gifts Received, Gift Correspondence, Corporate Gifts, and Personal Gifts.

The Acquisitions Division was established in 1948, with Samuel Rothstein as its head. It was designated to handle all accessions (books and periodicals), regardless of source (purchase, gift, or exchange), and administer the disposal of duplicate materials. A separate Serials Division was established in 1950 to handle periodicals and the Gifts and Exchanges Division in 1965. In 1991 the Division, together with the Serials Division, was reorganized to form the Order Division and the Collections Accounting and Budget, Division.
The sous-fonds consists of records generated by the Acquisitions Division and includes annual reports and correspondence with publishers, booksellers, and donors and a series related to UBC’s involvement with SHASTRI.

In 1960 the Reference Division was disbanded, and its staff and services were distributed among several newly-created subject divisions. One of these was the Science Division, located in the new south wing of the Main Library. Its staff was responsible for providing reference services in the physical sciences (except biological sciences, centred at Woodward/Life Sciences) and engineering. It was re-named Science and Engineering in 1992.
Sous-fonds consists of annual and other reports from the Science Division and floor plan drawings for parts of the Main Library where the Division and its collections were located.

The Data Library was set up in 1972 to acquire, store, and make available for research information kept in electronic format. The primarily statistical data was maintained for research in economics, demography, public opinion, geography, and other social sciences. It was operated jointly by the Library and the University Computing Centre. In 1998, the Humanities and Social Sciences / Government Publications Division absorbed the Data Library and became known as Numeric Data Services.
The sous-fonds consists of both records generated by the Data Library and printed information derived from or supplementary to the electronic data in its holdings. It includes contracts and other agreements covering data release to the Data Library, codebooks for electronic data, printed reports, and related documentation.

The Special Collections Division was established in 1960 to preserve and make the Library's rare and valuable books, manuscripts, maps, and special subject collections available to researchers. However, its origins date to 1943 and 1945, when the private libraries of Judge Frederic William Howay and Dr. Robie Lewis Reid, respectively, were donated to the Library. These collections included thousands of books and other publications regarding the history of British Columbia and Canada and numerous maps, photographs, and manuscripts. They together surpassed the "Canadiana" holdings of almost every other Library in the country. Since 1960 the Division's holdings have grown to include graduate theses, university archives, cartographic and architectural materials, fine press books, and early children's books. The Division has been headed by Basil Stuart-Stubbs (1960-1964), Anne Yandle (1964-1991), Hans Burndorfer (1992-1996), Brenda Peterson (1996-2001), and Ralph Stanton (2001- ). In 1991 the name was changed to "Special Collections and University Archives Division" to reflect the increased operational and administrative importance of the University Archives within both the Division and the university.
The sous-fonds consists of records generated in the course of the Division's activities and include correspondence, reports, minutes, financial documents, and printed/published materials. They are arranged in the following series: Division and Library Records, U.B.C. Committees and Departments, External Correspondence, Special Collections Records (continuation of Division and Library Records), Correspondence - Incoming and Outgoing (continuation of External Correspondence), and Map Collections.
