[Candrama] CTR digitization project

[Don Rubin]

Bravo to you and the press for this.  Have waited a long time for the early issues to be digitized.  They represent a Golden Age for our theatre and many researchers over the years have asked me why the early issues were ignored. Thank you.

I am currently out of the country but will return mid-March. I have a number of the issues you need. Will double-check at that time with you, see what you still need and send what I have to you then.

Best,

Don RUBIN

Hello CanDrama!

First of all, I want to say many many thanks to those of you from across the country who responded to my request to send me print copies of CTR. I am happy to report that I now have in my possession a complete set of CTR back to issue #1. (I have 5 copies of CTR 1!). With many multiple copies of some issues, I believe this is now the largest collection of CTR “in the wild.” I am pledged to be a good caretaker of this treasure.

To that end, I have been in conversations with our publisher University of Toronto Press Journals division. They have offered to store a complete set of issues in their “vault” to secure them in perpetuity. More exciting, in honour of our upcoming 50th anniversary, they are keen to embark on a digitization project that would see all issues fully digitized including covers, TOC, front matter, back matter and advertising as well as the articles and scripts. This is huge!

But… in order to do this most efficiently, one copy of each issue to be digitized will be destroyed in the process. And so this brings me to another ask from the CanDrama community. Below is a list of issues where I don’t yet have three copies of each. (One for the Editor, one for the vault, and one to be sacrificed for digitization). If you have any of these issues and are willing to part with them, please do email me (jenn.stephenson at queensu.ca<mailto:jenn.stephenson at queensu.ca>). I have some $ and am happy to arrange for a courier to come pick up your issues.

Again many many thanks in advance!

Yours digitally,
Jenn
