To support our UWindsor community in using the researcher identifier ORCID, Leddy Library has recently published an
ORCID Help Guide! In this guide, you will learn what an ORCID iD is, why you should have one, how to create and populate your profile, and more about ORCID at UWindsor.

“Once upon a time was a ‘wery’ nice time; monkey chew tobacco and spit out lime.”
So once upon a time there indeed were the UWindsor CARISAns, and associates, who went on to create waves and nation-build across the planet.
And once upon a time those CARISAns, and associates, resided either at UWindsor dorms, offsite UWindsor housing, or abodes elsewhere in that

“Once upon a time was a ‘wery’ nice time; monkey chew tobacco and spit out lime.”
So once upon a time, as reminded in Blogs 1-4, there was the Caribbean Students Association or CARISA at UWindsor, a motley crew of Caribbean stars (although many non-Caribbean persons were indeed invited to the cookout), “mixed right up like conch salad” – which is a popular Bahamian phrase.

“Once upon a time was a ‘wery’ nice time; monkey chew tobacco and spit out lime.”
So once upon a time there was the Caribbean Homegoing Booklet, a funeral booklet perhaps like no other, an unlikely genealogical ‘talking piece’, chock-rich in legacy information.

Hello.
So this particular post departs from the usual.
The blog pauses to say just two things:
1. Happy International Archives Week to all!
https://www.ica.org/international-archives-week/about-international-archives-week/
2. RIP, my father, Warren Seymour, 'Father of Chess in The Bahamas' and brilliant mathematician and educator. What a legacy!

It’s the first day of the month and, as promised, the launch of “61”.
Welcome to the initial set of 61 archival items, in observance of the 61 years of UWindsor’s existence!
Each and every record tells a story or has a narrative, and we do love a sweet story, so sit back, relax, and here we go.

Every day, around the world, people engage in the act of archiving. And not just professional archivists, either. Countless fascinating and historically valuable items never go to institutions, but instead stay in the families or private organizations for whom they are most meaningful.
