Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk (1836) is perhaps Canada's most scandalous literary export. However, only a few editions of the scurrilous anti-Catholic fabrication have been published in its purported author's country of origin. A mysterious undated edition, “published for the trade” in Toronto, is probably the most widely circulated Canadian printing. Based on a close investigation of the Toronto edition's physical characteristics—the stereotype plates used to print it, the illustrations, and the mismatched printer's ornaments appearing on certain pages—as well as the ownership history of one copy and the context of the book's legal status in Canada, this article argues that the Toronto edition is evidence of an anonymous publisher's strategies to evade customs censorship. It suggests that these strategies influenced how Canadian readers might have engaged with Awful Disclosures, highlighting the tension between obscenity and anti-Catholicism that underlay the book’s reception among readers, printers, and censors.

In recent years, technological developments in higher education have redefined the ways in which pedagogical practices are conducted. With the massive deployment of digital learning environments, the acceleration of such a phenomenon with COVID-19 and the latest advances in artificial intelligence (AI), instructors are increasingly creating and consuming education datasets for a variety of purposes. Provided that these documentary traces are better exploited, it is important that they are managed according to rules collectively shared by several stakeholders. This article takes a multidisciplinary approach to the management of open education datasets, integrating archival, library, computer, data and education sciences. We discuss how this collaboration should be carried out, while identifying its challenges and possible solutions to overcome them.
