    SERP Program and Policy

    The Saskatchewan Electronic Resources Partnership (SERP) is a province-wide program in which libraries pool funds to purchase access to electronic information resources: magazines, journals, newspapers, directories, reference books, and other information resources.

    The Planning and Development Committee was implemented to:

    • create standards for participation;
    • select and evaluate new products; and,
    • coordinate sector participation and funding.

    Participants of the program include ten public library systems, all PreK to 12 schools, most post-secondary institutions, plus multiple special libraries, and the Provincial Library and Literacy Office (PLLO). PLLO takes responsibility for the administration and coordination of the program.
