The Society’s records
Everything the Society’s own records say of Cathryn Bonis: the offices held, the standings conferred, and the awards won. Where the records are silent, so is this part of the page.

Life Member 1989
Certification
- Associate of the CSCL 1957

Of London, Ontario.
From Spring 1957, page 11.

Honours
- Life Membership 1972
Presented at the twenty-second Annual Meeting, which the Barrie Branch hosted on 22 April 1972. The newsletter records it in one sentence (“Cathryn Bonis was presented with a Life Membership, and two new Fellows, Jessie Little and Gladys Riddell were welcomed”) and says nothing of the citation. It is the earliest Life Membership the archive holds after the Honorary Life Fellowships of 1962, and it is not the same class: the 1962 awards were Honorary Life Fellow Memberships conferred by the Executive Council.
