Friday May 1, 2026 2:40pm - 3:00pm CST
CBC/Radio-Canada will present on Collab, which has funded library partnership programs since 2021. Collab offers a wide range of in-person activities to help libraries and CBC/Radio-Canada work in concert to connect with Canadians, building community, culture and conversation. People will learn about Radio-Canada’s “Tire-toi une bûche” project, Saskatchewan’s first Collab project that has taken place in various provincial libraries. The workshops give patrons the chance to tell and record their personal stories and anecdotes in their own way, with their own voice, with their final videos celebrated in a wrap-up event. We hope to expand this collaboration to include an English component, as well as work with rural libraries to highlight positive and uplifting stories that celebrate their communities.
