The Dorothy Nichol fonds contains artifacts and textural material regarding MSPE 1949, a certificate from McGill University's Women's Athletics Board to Dorothy Nichol and an Old McGill and program.

The fonds documents the client files (approximately 1976-2000), administrative records (approximately 1976-2000) and computer backup tapes (approximately 1989-1998) of McGill Systems Incorporated (MSI).

The fonds consists of Correspondence, course materials, newspaper clippings, offprints, photographs, and external lecture notes for approximately 1948 to approximately 1987.

The papers of "Jackrabbit" Johannsen reflect his personal, professional and recreational activities, mainly between 1934 and 1985. The largest part of the papers consists of correspondence with friends and organizations, particularly relating to skiing and outdoor life. Family relations are also covered. A series of brief journals provides a record of some of his daily activities, from 1948 to 1984. The remainder of the fonds include publications about Johannsen, photographs, maps and personal documents such as passports.

Fonds consists of photographs and other items that document the early career of Isadore Hirshberg while studying medicine at McGill University from 1909-1914, including 60 album-sized photographs, a framed group photograph of Hirshberg and Montreal General Hospital residents, Hirshberg's framed provincial medical certificate, and two certificates of residency.

Two photographs features the medical school janitor James "King" Cook, a fixture of the school and a favorite with the students from the late 19th through the early 20th centuries. His wife was Frank Buller's housekeeper during Osler's time. Fonds also includes a large framed group photograph, Resident Medical Staff/Montreal General Hospital/1914-1915 by Wm.
