The BC Digitization Coalition is a group working toward the creation of a provincial digitization strategy in British Columbia. The Coalition evolved from the committee which organized the 2008 BC Digitization Symposium, an event attended by stakeholders representing archives, historical societies, libraries, museums, and K-12 educators.
The purpose of the Coalition is outlined in its draft Terms of Reference:
- Continue to implement key recommendations identified by BC Digitization Symposium participants (See the BC Digitization Symposium Final Report)
- Advocate for collaboration and partnerships, especially around opportunities for funding to support ongoing digitization initiatives
- Facilitate dialogue and discussion around digitization strategies in communities across the Province
- Work with small and rural communities to support digitization efforts
