In 1999, however, there are few Taiwan students on campus, and most OCSA members come from Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore. As a result, rather than being the only Chinese organization in Fredericton which all Chinese people join, it is now just one of many, including the Malaysian Students Society , the Chinese Cultural Association of New Brunswick and the Chinese Students and Scholars Association . It contains operational records from 1964-2000, such as annual reports, minutes, correspondence, membership records, and constitutions. Also included in this fonds are photographs of various OCSA events, posters, programs, questionnaires, Chinese movie memorabilia, and ephemera associated with Chinese New Year Festivals. As well, there is a ten year run of the OCSA's financial records.
Title is based on the contents of the fonds.
Records for 1999-2000 were deposited on Mar. 21, 2000. See donor file. Documentation is frequently in both Chinese and English. There is no restriction on access to graphic material held apart from the textual records. The OCSA executive retains the right to access, and borrow temporarily if necessary, both textual and graphic materials required for them to conduct their business affairs or for display purposes.
