Projet Québec/Canada, a french GLAM project presented on the French
Wikisource in collaboration with WMCA and BAnQ (Bibliothèque et Archives
nationales du Québec) bears fruit.
With the enthusiastic collaboration of the Collection nationale (National
Collection), in the last year, over 35 historic documents and books were
rendered in digital format on Wikisource for the public and many more are
on their way to be completed.
Seeing the potential of this great collaboration between contributors and
BAnQ's mission to preserve and desseminate our published heritage, BAnQ
decided to link Wikisource directly from their official website's main page!
This new window on the national archives of Québec website will bring, I'm
sure, great visibility for Wikisource and many interested people who will
want to contribute!
