We present a dataset of six metagenomes and 323 metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs) describing the microbial community of anaerobic digesters at three Canadian pulp and paper mills. Our objective was to assess the coding potential of the microbial community and obtain draft genomes of key organisms in the digesters.
