Imagine Canada's Nonprofit Library Commons

Resource type: Web page / site
Topic(s):
Relates to region: Cross-province

Imagine Canada has relaunched their site to better facilitate the access to practical resources and tools, promising practices and up-to-date intelligence on the state of Canada's nonprofit sector.

The Imagine Canada – John Hodgson Library provides free access to the largest collection of Canadian nonprofit literature in the world. Reaching underserved community-based organizations in need of useful information and training and helping them become successful service providers and grantseekers is one of our key initiatives.

Resources Include:

  • Community Collections
    • A Community Collection (currently being piloted in Ontario) is a set of core print resources about the nonprofit sector in Canada. Important e-resources are also listed. The collection is national and practical in nature, and covers such topics as fundraising, charities law, and the management of boards, volunteers, and operations
  • Promising Practices
    • Discover models of practice, solutions to real-world problems and new approaches to delivering services. The Promising Practices Catalogue showcases successful initiatives with proven community or organizational impact
    • Browse the catalogue for examples of program innovation (i.e. improved practices in planning, design, and implementation), successful collaboration and partnership, effective communication, and leadership in governance, financial sustainability and more
  • Knowledge Exchange
    • The knowledge exchange is a place to ask questions and discuss nonprofit sector issues with others, share opinion, news and information from the field
