One of the surprises that comes from Decluttering is the discovery of old newspaper clippings. I found the following four articles from the Annapolis County Spectator of interest. All written by the author.
1) Geography matters: place-based economic develop. October 29, 2011
2) Geography, technology and scale. October 11, 2012
3) History, information and cultural mapping. February 21, 2013.
4) Connecting the stories. October 21, 2013.
GEOGRAPHY MATTERS ARTICLE
It is significant that the NSCC fired the author, Chris Hopkinson and Jeff Wentzell on November 22, 2011 (after the first article was published).
HISTORY, INFORMATION & CULTURAL MAPPING: GEORGETOWN LETTER ARTICLE
On a different note, I found the obituary for Roger Tomlinson, the Father of Computerized Cartography; a full page in the Globe and Mail, Saturday March 1, 2014.
It includes a photograph of Roger conducting field work in Labrador in 1957.
The author was in Labrador at the McGill Sub-Arctic Research Lab in Schefferville conducting field work in 1964-65. He completed his B.Sc. Honours thesis ‘ A Biogeographical Study of the Shoal Lake Area, Labrador’ at the University of Birmingham, UK.
