This specialized library was created to centralize research on immigrants and refugees in Alberta, including both academic and community-level resources like program evaluation reports. Designed for easy access by diverse users—community members, service providers, students, consultants, and academics—the library also encourages contributions from these groups. In 2020, a partnership between MITACS and CCIS analyzed newcomer research in Alberta by interviewing 12 immigrant-serving leaders and 5 academics who specialize in immigrant and refugee studies. The analysis identified key relationship challenges in the sector, which the library aims to help address by providing a centralized resource.
