Fan correspondence and related material

This series consists primarily of mail, artwork and objects received by Coupland from fans. Also included in this series are various sketches and drawings created by fans and collected by Coupland during book tour events. After approximately the year 2000, most of Coupland’s fan mail began to arrive digitally, and is therefore not included with the first accrual of his fonds.

Also included in this series are records relating to the academic study of Douglas Coupland's work by others, including correspondence with students and copies of dissertations and theses.

Fashion design projects

Series relates to Coupland’s venture into clothing design in collaboration with Roots Canada Ltd. Under the tagline “Canada Goes Electric,” Coupland designed a limited-edition clothing line as well as various leather goods which were released in stores and online in 2010. This project marked the first time that Roots partnered with an outside designer in this way.

Series includes textual records relating to the design and research of the clothing items. Also included in the series are finished production garments and leather goods, as well as items not approved for production; strikeoffs; fabric and leather samples; and finishing material such as patches, zippers, labels, and fasteners.
