Write to Read BC volunteers are currently collaborating with four Indigenous organisations or First Nations. These First Nations are:
- Daylu Dena in northern BC.
- Aboriginal Housing Society in Prince George.
- Tl’esqox (Toosey) library in Caribou-Chilcotin.
- Nzen’man’ (Zenmin) Centre in Lytton.
Together with community members, a variety of Write to Read BC volunteers will:
- specify what library shelving to build for upcoming library projects.
- coordinate book donations with supplier GoodMinds.com.
- ship books to a volunteer in Whitehorse, relatively close to Daylu Dena library in northern BC.
- complete the Daylu Dena library installation.
- meet with Aboriginal Housing Society in Prince George to determine the library needs of multiple generations.
- assess the available space and work on a design with Aboriginal Housing Society and stakeholders.
- assess the space and shelves in the Tl’esqox library.
- edit the Tl’esqox collection: cull books and develop a replacement book list.
- firm up the 2027 Nzen’man’ project in Lytton.
- check the type of fire-suppression—either water or foam—in the Nzen’man’ Centre, to frame the project scope.
