Last year, archivist Shannon Bettles wrote a blog titled, Alligators, Confectionary, and a man named Leary. If you have not had the opportunity to read this blog I strongly encourage you to take a look. The blog describes the fascinating story of how the Frederick Gordon Leary fonds (previously known as the Dragonfly collection) made its way into our collection. My favourite part is, of course, the Key. The Key gives you a brief inside into how us archivist will use the collection itself to determine provenance.
