Grenfell Campus Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon
On March 23, 2018, the Grenfell Campus Library hosted Newfoundland's first ever Feminist Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon.
Wikipedia is one of the world’s most popular free online research tools - but did you know that less than 10% of its contributors identify as female? That gender imbalance is reflected in the site’s content. A global project, Art+Feminism, is addressing that issue by holding Edit-A-Thons around the world. More info: artandfeminism.org

Adrift on an Ice Floe in the Arctic Ocean by Dr Wilfred Grenfell CMG HMV no 2 D376
ir Wilfred Thomason Grenfell, KCMG (28 February 1865 -- 9 October 1940) was a medical missionary to Newfoundland and Labrador.
He was born at Parkgate, Wirral, England, the son of Rev. Algernon Sidney Grenfell,[1] headmaster of Mostyn House School, and Jane Georgiana Hutchison and married Anne Elizabeth Caldwell MacClanahan of Chicago, Illinois, in 1909. She died in 1938. They had three children and retired to Vermont after his work in Newfoundland.
Grenfell moved to London in 1882. He then commenced the study of medicine at the London Hospital Medical College (now part of Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry) under the tutelage of Sir Frederick Treves: he graduated in 1888.
The Royal National Mission to Deep Sea Fishermen sent Grenfell to Newfoundland in 1892 to improve the plight of coastal inhabitants and fishermen.[2] That mission began in earnest in 1893 when he recruited two nurses and two doctors for hospitals at Indian Harbour, Newfoundland and later opened cottage hospitals along the coast of Labrador. The mission expanded greatly from its initial mandate to one of developing schools, an orphanage, cooperatives, industrial work projects, and social work. Although originally founded to serve the local fishermen the mission developed to include the aboriginal peoples and settlers along the coasts of Labrador and the eastern side of the Great Northern Peninsula of northern Newfoundland. For his years of service on behalf of the people of these communities he was later knighted. He had two sons and a daughter. Grenfell died of a coronary thrombosis at Kinloch House on 9 October 1940, and his ashes were brought to St Anthony, where they were placed inside a rock face overlooking the harbour.
[edit]Introduction of reindeer
In 1907 Grenfell imported a group of 300 reindeer from Norway to provide food and serve as draft animals in Newfoundland. Unbeknownst to him, some of the animals carried a parasitic roundworm, Elaphostrongylus rangiferi, that then spread to native caribou herds. The reindeer herd eventually disappeared; however, the parasite took hold and causes cerebrospinal elaphostronglyosis (CSE) in caribou, a disease well known in reindeer in Scandinavia.[3]
[edit]International Grenfell Association
By 1914 the mission had gained international status. In order to manage its property and affairs, the International Grenfell Association, a non-profit mission society, was founded to support Grenfell's work. The Association operated, until 1981, as an NGO. It had responsibility for delivery of healthcare and social services in northern Newfoundland and Labrador. After 1981 a governmental agency, The Grenfell Regional Health Services Board, took over the operational responsibility. The International Grenfell Association, having divested itself of all properties and operational responsibility for health and social services, boarding schools, hospitals then became a supporting association making grants and funding scholarships for medical training.
[edit]Historical Society
Sir Wilfred Grenfell
postage issue of 1940
The Sir Wilfred Thomason Grenfell Historical Society was formed in 1978. The society purchased Grenfell's home in St. Anthony, Newfoundland and Labrador. The home has been restored as a museum and archives. The Sir Wilfred Thomason Grenfell Historical Society with the support of Provincial Government and the International Grenfell Association began construction of an interpretation centre in St. Anthony and it was opened in 1997. This facility added to the existing house and serves to promote the legacy to thousands of visitors each year. The Grenfell Interpretation Centre also is used by other organizations for meetings and events. A large interpretive display is housed there and provides historical background surrounding the work of Sir Wilfred Thomason Grenfell.
[edit]Literary inspiration
A unique figure, Grenfell served to inspire at least two characters in Canadian literature: Dr. Luke in Norman Duncan's Doctor Luke of the Labrador (1904) and Dr. Tocsin in White Eskimo by Harold Horwood (1972).
A biography for children (middle-high school) was written in 1942, by Genevieve Fox. Published by Thomas Y Crowell Company. The book had second and third printings as well.
The following statement has been widely ascribed to him, but cannot be found in any of his books: The service we render to others is really the rent we pay for our room on this earth. It is obvious that man is himself a traveler; that the purpose of this world is not 'to have and to hold' but 'to give and serve.' There can be no other meaning.

Hello. Please take a look at this list:
World’s second-largest gold coin stolen from Berlin museum
The “Big Maple Leaf” coin is one of five pure gold commemorative coins issued by the Royal Canadian Mint in 2007 and is worth an estimated $4 million.
It was stolen from the Bode Museum in Berlin in the early hours by at least two thieves, who used a ladder to enter the building through a rear window, the Guardian reported.
The 100-kilogram coin was displayed in a bulletproof glass cabinet. The thieves smashed their way in with a heavy tool, possibly a sledgehammer.
The thieves left the museum the same way they came in, and then pushed the coin in a wheelbarrow down railway tracks toward a nearby park.
Investigators believe the coin was damaged when the thieves then rappelled down from the railway tracks and made their escape in a getaway car.
Police suspect the thieves had inside information because they managed to evade all of the museum’s security guards and alarms.
The museum is refusing to reveal just what security it had in place, and police fear the coin has already been melted down and sold.

Epic scenic elevator at MUN Grenfell Campus Forest Centre, Corner Brook NL
This is by far one of the coolest elevators I have ever reviewed, it features a view of the tree roots and soil on the basement level, the elevator itself is surrounded by a large planter featuring palm trees and other indoor plants, and the soil goes down to the basement, this masterpiece of an elevator is an Otis with series 1 fixtures and it's located in the Forest Centre at MUN Grenfell Campus in Corner Brook, NL, I think youtuber mrvideodude709 should check this one out too if he is going to be in the Corner Brook area anytime soon, and I hope to do a retake of this one in 4K using my Sony Xperia Z5 phone.

Grief Is a Knot Performed by Anastasia Ghaney; PEA 17 No. 105
The analogy used in the opening line of this song of tragic love is so subtle. A grief knot is a trick knot that slips apart. In addition to this example by Anastasia Ghaney, Peacock recorded a 14-stanza example from Rebecca Bennett of St. Paul’s (PEA 94-752) in Songs of the Newfoundland Outports (1965, 3: 673-74), into which he then incorporated Ghaney’s stanza 11. Sometime around 1924 or 1925, while working in Sop’s Arm as a volunteer for the International Grenfell Association, Florence Clothier acquired a 15-stanza version of “Grief is a Knot,” likely drawn from the performance of the Gale family of Pumbley Cove (Graesser, 2015: 222-24). The song appears to be confined to Newfoundland. Comparison with other examples of the song suggests that, as there are no local referents, it is likelylocally composed, draws cleverly on similar ballad formats and (or) has evolved from a much earlier old-world ballad.
