La dernière entrée de notre blog Boxes and Bistreams concerne la Galerie FOFA!

Intitulée "La Galerie FOFA : Équilibre entre histoire et réalité", nous rentrons dans le processus de traitement de documents numériques; des choix qui ont été faits pour garder un maximum de photos des expositions tout en gardant le cap sur les réalitées archivistiques de notre équipe.

Ces photos sont des archives visuelles importantes pour la Galerie FOFA, mais aussi pour Concordia!

Today, we are officially launching our blog "Boxes and Bitstreams"!

This will give us opportunities at Records Management and Archives to shine a light on the human experience of working with and connecting to archival materials.

We wanted an outlet to share our thoughts, explain what goes in our minds when we do our work at the Concordia archives, share news about recent acquisitions and talk about special projects we took on. This blog is our answer to this desire. We have two articles at the writing of this post, and we are planning on having between 6 and 12 articles per year. Working at archives can be really busy, so we might have a lot to say!

The blog articles can be found in our website : https://ow.ly/vQXN50ZAySi

We are pleased to announce that the Elizabeth Langley fonds is now available for consultation at Concordia Archives!

Elizabeth Langley joined Concordia University in 1978, teaching modern dance courses in the Performing Arts division. The popularity of her classes lead to the creation of Concordia’s dance program in 1980 — at the time, the first university program in Canada leading to a bachelor’s degree in choreography.

Langley was Chair of the Department of Contemporary Dance in 1990-1991 and
again from 1992 to1995. She was promoted Full-Professor in 1995 and served on
many University-wide Committees during her career at Concordia. After retiring in 1997, she continued her work in dance and dramaturgy.

Received by Concordia Archives last spring, the Elizabeth Langley fonds documents her remarkable career as a dance teacher (first in Australia, then in Ottawa, and Montreal), a dancer, choreographer, performer, and researcher. The fonds includes photographs, slides, negatives, collages, teaching materials, lecture notes, course outlines, presentations, news clippings, promotional materials, audiovisual recordings, research documentation, correspondence, and more, ranging from the early 1950’s to 2023. For more information, please visit our online catalogue.

To make an appointment to consult the fonds, contact [email protected].

Happy Canada Day 2026!

Today, we're sharing a photograph captured in Ottawa in July 1994 by Montrealer and Concordia University donor Joyce H. Newton.

Newton’s generosity continues to make a lasting impact. Through a planned gift of $316,000, she created opportunities for future students in Concordia’s Department of Geography, Planning and Environment, reflecting her lifelong dedication to education and philanthropy.

In 2025, Concordia’s Records Management and Archives received collections of Newton’s photographs taken during her travels throughout Quebec, Ontario, Nova Scotia and Vermont in the 1980s and 1990s.

Her archival materials are now preserved as part of the Concordia University Alumni and Friends Archives Collection, helping to tell the stories of our community for generations to come.

For today's ACA Hashtag party, , we decided to dig up some photos of a fashion show that was organised by the International and Ethnic Associations Council of Concordia. The show was called "Prima Moda" and it took place in September 1997.

The participants clearly walked up and down the walkway in style!
