The project has two components. The first consists of a series of interviews of former miners in the region to collect their histories and stories about their work in the mines, labour relations, safety, the evolution of technology, etc. The second component will use these oral interviews and the archival documents and audio records in the museum's collections to develop a bilingual self-guided tour allowing visitors to the historical centre to take the tour on their own. The museum hopes to make its audio guide available to visitors for the 2019 summer season.

This project will focus on processing and providing collection-level access to approximately 20 archival collections from the Jewish Museum and Archives of British Columbia (JMABC). The related work will include appraisal, arrangement, description, and the creation of a finding aid, which will then be made available through the JMABC’s online database, AtoM (Access to Memory).

The Mugshot Mayhem project will establish the foundation for the digitization of 5 manuscripts that are in poor physical condition, need a comprehensive preservation plan, have recently come into public domain, and are the subject of frequent requests for access. This project will see the development of an archival digitization program at the Vancouver Police Museum and Archives and the first comprehensive conservation undertaking for the manuscript collection, setting the stage for continued best practices in both areas.

This IRAP project will be focusing on automating the internal production to reduce the non-conformity rate. It will also be focusing on developing the initial concept of the next product iteration.x000D

Development of Official Language Communities Program

The purpose of this project is to develop a Sailing Plan Mobile App and Dashboard applications in order to make the process of creating and submitting a sailing plan easier and faster for boat captains and in turn make this large quantity of data more accessible and actionable by CCG staff. These tools will immediately increase the likelihood of responding to overdue boating by the CCG or other marine SAR operators and provide support to ensure operational legal compliance and insurance coverage.

this project is to improve the tracking of training, as well as the ability to coordinate, collaborate, track and report SAR event responses. The method used to accomplish this will be the implementation of a highly efficient system designed around CASARA's response procedures that will reduce workload and improve call-out readiness. Mission planning, mission tracking, and fast and effective information sharing with SAR partners will be tightly integrated to improve response time and coordination.

This two-part project will increase SAR Awareness levels and sustainable lifejacket wear by Indigenous people in Northern communities. Part one will educate Junior Canadian Rangers (JCRs) about SAR Awareness and equip them with personal lifejackets at their annual Basic and Advanced Enhanced Training Session (ETS) Camps. These are girls and boys, aged 12 to 18, who are involved in outdoor pursuits like boating, hunting and fishing, and who live in remote and isolated areas of Canada served by the Canadian Rangers
