About RLG Programs

 
Who we are

RLG Programs is part of OCLC’s Programs and Research division. OCLC is a nonprofit, membership, computer library service and research organization dedicated to the public purposes of furthering access to the world's information and reducing information costs.

RLG Programs is comprised of nearly 150 research libraries, archives, museums, and other cultural memory institutions. Our global partnership has remarkable collections for research, teaching and learning. Originally founded in 1974 by The New York Public Library and Columbia, Harvard, and Yale universities, RLG Programs combined with OCLC in July 2006. The new organization will be the leading venue for applied research, community building and prototyping of systems and services that support research and learning.

RLG Programs is funded in part through annual partner affiliation dues and works closely with a Program Council and the RLG Committee of the OCLC Board of Trustees. It is headquartered in Mountain View, California.
