Presentations and Audio from the First OCLC Asia Pacific Regional Council Meeting

The meeting took place in April at the National Library of Australia, in Canberra, ACT.

The OCLC Asia Pacific Regional Council represents member libraries from the territory west of Hawaii, ranging from China, Korea and Japan in the north to Australia and New Zealand in the south, and Pakistan to the west. The Asia Pacific Council elects member librarians to one-year terms on the Asia Pacific Executive Committee; Executive Committee members also serve as Member Delegates to the Global Council. Asia Pacific Council meetings are open to all members and provide a forum to discuss issues that are important to its members and to advise OCLC about its products, services, policies and operating direction through the Global Council.
