Membership in OCLC provides your users—and library users around the globe—access to information and resources created by and for members. Members elect 48 delegates to the OCLC Global Council to work within and across geographic regions to reflect their views of members and expedite the flow of information between members and the cooperative.

Membership in OCLC gives libraries the means to access, coordinate, and deliver the global resources your users need to succeed.
Working for you
A key benefit of membership is the opportunity to elect delegates that reflect the local and regional views on issues facing libraries today. Member libraries have a voice through their elected representatives on the Global and Regional Councils.
