Archival materials belonging to Jamaica's late Ambassador of Culture The Honourable Louise Bennett-Coverley (Miss Lou), will be turned over to McMaster University, located in Hamilton, Canada.

The presentation will take place next Sunday, during an event dubbed, 'Walk Good: A Celebration of the Life and Legacy of Miss Lou', which will be held at the McMaster University's DeGroote SchoolofBusiness, Ron Joyce Centre.

Judge Pamela Appelt, who served as co-executor of Miss Lou's estate, said the gift to the university will consist of all of Miss Lou's papers, photos and works in her possession when she died in July 2006, in Canada, where she resided for many years.

"We are talking about some 80 boxes of materials," said Appelt during a recent interview with JIS News.

"The university will digitise all the material that they will receive and it will be available for anybody around the world to see and learn more about Miss Lou," she added.

Miss Lou, who has been credited with elevating the status of the Jamaican language, lived in Toronto, Canada for the last 20 years of her life. The Province of Ontario honoured her memory with the establishment of 'Miss Lou's Room' in 2007 at Harbourfront Centre, a cultural centre located in downtown Toronto.

Visitors to Miss Lou's Room can see photographs and listen to her performances and recordings.
