The preface by Jesse J. Dillard Jr., President, reads, “This catalogue is the result of a summer project of the Victoria Black People’s Society. The aims of the project were to research existing information in public records pertaining to Blacks in British Columbia, catalogue this information, and publish it in a consolidated form.”
The Catalogue is 230 pages; with sources and references for topics such as employment, women, social issues, legal issues, education, and population. In 2017 the catalogue was “digitized” and is now on this website.
