Saskatchewan Designation Project

The Saskatchewan Designation Project is the creation of a distinctive sticker with a logo for use as a unique visual identification for recognizing and identifying Saskatchewan produced literary, musical, and visual materials, especially in libraries.
The SPG invites Saskatchewan publishers to consider inclusion of the logo in the design of upcoming books. This logo is available in high-resolution from the SPG.

The Spirit of Saskatchewan Catalogue

The Spirit of Saskatchewan Catalogue is a joint effort among the Saskatchewan Book Awards, the Saskatchewan Publishers Group, the Saskatchewan Library Association, the Saskatchewan Writers Guild, and SaskLearning. It is a catalogue of award-winning books written by Saskatchewan writers. You can find a print version or an online version from the Saskatchewan Book Awards website.

 

The Saskatchewan Book Archive

The Saskatchewan Book Archive ("Sasktchewan Sampler" in a former iteration) is an archive that displays the depth and breadth of Saskatchewan writing history. The Book Archive database is a searchable catalogue of books published or written by Saskatchewan residents between 1905 and the present, as well as any other books that focus on Saskatchewan
