We’re excited to share the BC ELN Innovation & Success 2024 [1] report – a celebration of what we can achieve when we work together!

Thanks to your collective efforts, BC ELN helped partner libraries avoid $11.5 million in costs in 2024 through consortial licensing, shared services, and collaborative programs.

A few 2024 highlights:

  • Partner libraries saved $4.3 million through consortial licensing
  • 36,000+ student interactions with AskAway & WriteAway – meeting learners where they are
  • 10M+ resources available through Illume Interlibrary Loan, connecting users across 104 libraries
  • Major progress on Arca’s Islandora 2.0 migration, expanding digital preservation capacity
