Canadian Writing Research Collaboratory

Canadian Writing Research Collaboratory or CWRC has become home for digitalization of literary heritage in the English and French speaking world. The project differs from the other literary initiatives by its ability to look at the culture, literature and art in the light of XXI century, the age of ubiquitous Information and Technology. Due to its infrastructure nature CWRC may be portrayed as a family of interdisciplinary projects and ideas gathered in one electronic pool. Principal funding sources of the Project are the Canada Foundation for Innovation and Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
