Notes:
This reading could've been held at Selkirk College since Selkirk is written on the j-card with a question mark in front of it; however, Selkirk has more than one campuses and we are not sure which campus this tape was recorded at, so we decided to enter Castlegar. We are not sure if both poetry readings by Al Purdy and Eli Mandel are at Selkirk College or just Al Purdy's reading part
