In April, OCLC announced plans to launch a new service for Web-scale, cooperative library management services—network-level tools for managing library collections through circulation and delivery, print and licensed acquisitions, and license management. These new services will complement existing OCLC Web-scale services, such as cataloging, resource sharing, and integrated discovery.
The Library Advisory Council comprises leaders from the library community who will assist OCLC in creating a service strategy that will meet the needs of libraries across various sectors and geographies. Members of the Library Advisory Council are:
+ Helene Blowers, Digital Strategy Director, Columbus Metropolitan Library
+ John Helmer, Executive Director, Orbis Cascade Alliance
+ Jan Ison, Executive Director, Lincoln Trail Libraries System
+ R. David Lankes, Associate Professor, Syracuse University
+ Sarah McHugh, Statewide Projects Librarian, Montana State Library
+ Mary Piorun, Associate Director, University of Massachusetts Medical Center Library
