This series consists of Thesen’s personal journals, which also contain other files within them. These journals and items range from 1966 to 1989, although many of the items do not have a specific date. The journals for the most part are of Thesen’s personal life, thoughts and feelings about what was happening in her life during the time of writing. The journals are categorized loosely in chronological order, although this is not a hard and fast rule. The entries inside are dated by month and day, but rarely year, and do not appear to follow any other schemes of organization. The files contained within the journals covers a wide range of dates and file types as well. The files inside include letters, notes, sketches, and other miscellaneous files. There are several persons mentioned which include her children, other poets, and her romantic partners.

This series consists of Thesen’s work as well as other collections such as correspondence, notes, and essay drafts. The date of the files range from 1969 to 1989. The production of the records appears to be for the purpose of preparation for publication. Many of the files in the record are annotated or edited in some way, assumed by Thesen herself. The files are loosely collected by poem series, although other files are frequently inserted. The correspondence cover areas including the publishing of either poetry, essays, or reviews of other writing.

The series consists of published books owned by the Zoological Society of Montreal, which pertain to the activities and interests of the Society. Some of these works contain the authors’ signatures.

The series consists of materials used to communicate the Society’s activities, interests, and administration to its members and the public. These are primarily in the form of newsletters whose format and purpose varied throughout the Society’s existence. The series contains the Society’s newsletter The Lynx, a seasonal publication, for the years 1967-81, with gaps between 1968-71. The Lynx contains photos, articles, and book reviews relating to the interests of the Society, as well as administrative coverage of the Society’s meetings and member reports. In the mid-70s, The Lynx took on a longer, magazine-style format whose focus shifts to editorials, long form articles, and contains advertisements. After 1981, the Society began publishing the aptly named Newsletter in place of The Lynx, moving away from the highly polished magazine format. This series contains the Newsletter, published monthly from 1981- 2016. Although the name The Lynx was reinstated in 2000, the format remained casual. The newsletter entitled Bulletin is also contained in this series, published monthly from 1976-81 as a means of informing members about recent and upcoming Society events. Some files also contain event invitations, notices, and pamphlets on activities hosted by the Society.

The series consists of documents produced in the day-to-day managing of the Society. These records were created by various bodies within the Zoological Society including most prominently, the Executive Committee, the Project Committee and the president. They reflect the mandate and creation of the Society through by-laws and letters patent incorporating, and the operations of the Society including meeting minutes and notices, correspondence, reports, financial records, member information, event and project planning documents, and donations. Newspaper advertisements and published articles on the Society or its activities have also been gathered and documented. Correspondence records are primarily with the Society president, but also contain member and guest speaker correspondence with the Executive Committee. The Project Committee administrative records deal largely with field trip planning and associated communications to members. The series also contains the administrative records of the Zoological Society of Canada (1969-2011), which contain the same types of documents.
Notably, this series contains correspondence with Prime Minister’s Jean Chrétien and Brian Mulroney (MSG1164.c2.f2 and MSG1164.c4.f11).

The administrative records series contains documents that reflect the structure and mandate of the Society, such as their constitution, acts, by-laws, yearly agenda, bookings, and membership lists. Summaries of meetings provide information of the NHSM’s interactions with other societies, notably the Horticultural Society, and also includes correspondence with society members, lists of addresses. An obituary of Society Librarian Charles Robb and an example of a membership certificate belonging to J. H. Joseph may also be found.
