OCLC Research Publications Repository

Overview Conducting research on behalf of the library community has, for 27 years, been part of the mission of OCLC, and they believe that if research is worth doing, it's worth telling people about. Making the research outcomes known is integral to OCLC's mission, and OCLC does this both by writing about it and by demonstrating it. Accordingly, in September 2003, OCLC's Office of Research set about to create a repository of its staff's publications.
