Nobody actually had time to count them, but a caboodle of email message and two years of telephone conference calls have brought us to this point. And who can forget all the tweets, web posts, Facebooking feints, and letters of invitation that zapped back and forth through the atmosphere? Welcome to UBC, to Vancouver and to Canada, if you are one of our international visitors. The CCWWP Board and its volunteers have organized a great three days of talking, presenting, reading and interfacing. CCWWP is a seminal organization at a crucial time in its short life, and we are delighted all of you have decided to join us. Please have a wonderful time; come and say hello once you get settled. If you have any issues or concerns, please let me–or another member of the board–know. But mostly: have a great time. Lynne Van Luven Board Chair, CCWWP Conference Committee’s Message We’d like to thank our generous sponsors and all the many volunteers who’ve helped to put this together: the reviewers who programmed the panels and presentations, the coordinators of the cabaret and student readings, and the writing students who’ll be the friendly face of CCWWP at registration and during the weekend’s events. We would particularly like to acknowledge the land on which the conference is being held. UBC’s Point Grey Campus is located on the traditional, ancestral, unceded territory of the Musqueam people. These lands have always been a place of learning for Musqueam youth, who were instructed in their culture, history, and tradition, and who in turn shared their knowledge with a new generation.

  • The Case of Talonbooks
    A Legacy of Canadian Cultural Tradition and the Small Press: The Case of Talonbooks KATHLEEN SCHERF INETEEN SIXTY-SEVEN was an auspicious year for the support and profile of Canadian literary culture. The Centennial, N Expo ’67, accessible Canada Council grants to publishers and authors, Local Initiatives Project and Opportunities for Youth grants, the expansion of universities and their student bases, and the tenth anniver- sary of McClelland & Stewart’s launch in 1957 of the New Canadian Library series — all played a role in raising the Canadian literary con- sciousness. Two of the consciousnesses raised belonged to David Robinson and Jim Brown, who in that year launched on the University of British Columbia (UBC) campus a little magazine called Talon. The expansion in literary culture of which Talon was a part included the breathtakingly rapid expansion of little magazines and small presses in English Canada during the 1960s and 1970s. In 1967, for example, Canadian Literature devoted an entire issue (number 33) to “Publishing in Canada.” The issue contains responses to a questionnaire about Cana- dian publishing circulated by editor George Woodcock to various writ- ers and publishers: Earle Birney, Kildare Dobbs, Arnold Edinborough, Robert Fulford, Roderick Haig-Brown, Carl F. Klinck, Hugh MacLennan and Robert Weaver — all big names. Not one of those questions or an- swers deals with the existence of small presses, and of the issue’s six ad- ditional articles about publishing, only one, by Wynne Francis, has as its subject “The Little Press,” and it is primarily a checklist. Only three years later, in 1970, in a Dalhousie Review article on Canadian poetry published in 1969, Douglas Barbour remarks that eight- een of the twenty books under consideration in his review were issued by small presses.

This “second wave of self-publishing” has come about as a widespread surge, particularly in the realm of contemporary art and graphic design, but also in literary and DIY circles. As was the case in the “first wave,” this expansion has resulted in the development of brick-and-mortar spaces that house and nurture the activities of this niche, particularly the production of publications, exhibitions and additional programming (such as lectures and workshops).
