Sitka is a group of libraries in the Provinces of BC and Manitoba, Canada, using the award-winning open-source Evergreen software as its shared Integrated Library System (ILS). Sitka is governed by the non-profit, member-driven BC Libraries Cooperative, supported by a dedicated team and funded by the member libraries in partnership with the Province of British Columbia.

This initiative is truly a collaborative effort, creating tremendous economies of scale, opportunities for shared growth and increasing access to library resources.

Here are some links and a listserv that help facilitate discussion around Evergreen within BC. As well, a set of Evergreen Talking Points strives to inform library boards and staff about the initiative.
