PREFACE

The work reported herein was perforned pursuant to a contract with the United

States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, Office of Education. The purpose of the contract was to prepare a Supplement to the Directory of Academic Library Consortia, which was published by System Development Corporation in 1972. The Supplement was to identify and describe a wide range of library consortia, cooperatives, and networks that were not included in the Directory. Criteria for inclusion in the Supplement are listed and discussed in the Introduction.

The Supplement was prepared under the general supervision of Dr. Carlos A. Cuadra, Manager of the Education and Library Systems Department at System Development Corporation.contributions to the Supplement were made by Theresa Abramian, Donald Black, Diana DeLanoy, Ann Luke, and Ruth Patrick. Their assistance is gratefully acknowledged. Special thanks are due to Joyce Holmen, project secretary and research assistant, for her unceasing efforts to achieve completeness and ac..uracy.

We are grateful for the help and support of Lawrence W. Papier, the USOE project monitor. V

I. INTRODUCTION

A. BACKGROUND

In 1971, System Development Corporation (SDC) performed a study of academic library consortia, under contract to the U.S. Office of Education. The purpOse of the study was to collect extensive information on existing academic library consortia and to develop a set of guidelines for planning, developing, operating, and evaluating a library consortium. One product of the study was the Directory of Academic Library Consortia, which was subsequently published by SDC.*The Directory lists 125 consortia and gives a detailed summary of the organization and activities of each one.

The Directory was designed to facilitate communication among persons interested in the possibilities and potentials of library consortia.This included librarians interested in joining or initiating a cooperative agreement, researchers interested in the growth of cooperation among libraries, and people who were already involved in consortia and were interested in what other consortia were doing. The consortia that were selected for inclusion had to meet the following criteria:

1. The participating institutions must be autonomous; that is, they must report to separate Boards of Regents or other separate, higher-level governing bodies.

2. More than half the members of a consortium must be academic libraries.

3. Two or more libraries must be involved, with activities extending beyond traditional interlibrary loan as defined by ALA rules.

4. If the library consortium is part of a higher-level, multipurpose higher-education consortium, it must be a separate entity with the goal of improving library services.

5. The consortium must have developed beyond the exploratory stage; i.e., the group must have declared itself a cooperative entity and must at least be planning joint activities.

*DeLanoy, Diana D., and Cuadra, Carlos A., Directory of Academic Library Consortia, System Development Corporation, Santa Monica, California, 1972. 4

6. The consortium must be organized to pursue activities that are of benefit to the academic participants involved.

After the publication of the Directory in September, 1971, SDC and USOE agreed to cooperate on a second project, aimed at producing a Supplement to the Directory of Academic Library Consortia. The decision to produce a Supplement came out of a desire to identify and describe a wider range of groups that are participating in the growing movement toward library cooperation.The Supplement project was designed to include a greater variety as well as a larger number of cooperating library groups. To this end, the criteria for inclusion were significantly relaxed. We hoped that the variety of approaches to cooperation that we would identify by taking a more inclusive approach would provide interesting comparisons and useful information for the Supplement user.

Three basic criteria for inclusion were used in the preparation of the Supplement. Cooperatives that were included (1) were not included in the Directory; (2) had at least one academic library member; and (3) were actively engaged in, or actively planning to engage in, cooperative library activities.We hoped to include new groups that had started since the original study, groups that had not been identified during the original study, and several kinds of library groups that had been excluded from the Directory:

1. Cooperatives with at least one academic library member,

2. Informal cooperative arrangements,

3. State-administered cooperative programs, and

4. Cooperative arrangements among the various campuses of single insti-

tutions.

The application of thesit criteria is described more fully in Section C, Appli- cation of Criteria for Inclusion. 5

B. METHODOLOGY

The following steps were taken to prepare the Supplement:

1. Identify potential Supplement entries.

Sources of information about possible Supplement entries included: (1) the extensive SDC files on libraries and library consortia; (2) published reports and other literature; (3) experts in library cooperation; (4) government agencies that provide funding for groups of cooperating libraries; (5) State Librarians; and (6) directors of library consortia that were described in the Directory.

The reader may note that Illinois and Pennsylvania are covered in greater detail than most other states. At the time we started gathering information for the Supplement, the state libraries in those two states had recently completed statewide studies of library cooperatives; we were able to use the reports of their studies to identify potential Supplement entries.

One other extremely useful source of information is described under item 4, below.

An interesting characteristic of the process of gathering information about library cooperatives is that the field changes very fast. Even in Illinois, where we had access to a report published in May, 1972, it was necessary to verify each entry by our draft-entry process, because many of the cooperatives had changed substantially by August or September.

2. Collect as much information as possible on each potential entry identified. When a particular group of libraries was identified as a possible Supplement entry, the project staff tried to get as much information as possible about that group of libraries before contacting them directly. This approach was taken to avoid the use of questionnaires and to give our respondents as little extra work as possible.

3. Compile the information for each library group_into a draft entry. A standard format for entries in the Supplement was developed. ,A draft entry was compiled for each group of libraries that had been identified as a potential Supplement entry. Draft entries were made up to look as much as possible like the final entries that would appear in the Supplement. 6

4. Mail the draft entry to the group of libraries -Lt describes. Draft entries were mailed to the consortia or cooperatives so that they could make any corrections or additions that they felt were necessary. At this point there was an opportunity to ask respondents to identify other potential entries for the Supplement. This turned out to be the most important single source of information about potential entries.

5. Edit the returned entries for completeness and c:: -city. The staff-reviewed the information supplied by the resPo-Adents for completeness and clarity and checked omissions or ambiguities by telephoning the person who had supplied the information.

6. Compile and produce the Supplement. Entries were put in final form, accompanying materials were written, indexes were compiled, and the Supplement was printed at SDC.

C. APPLICATION OF CRITERIA

A great many kinds of cooperative arrangements are described in this Supplement, ranging from an informal agreement for the exchange of borrowing privileges between two small college libraries to a highly organized information system administered by a state library. Although some of the arrangements described may not be considered cooperatives in the strict sense, the project staff decided to include a number of borderline cases.Two of our considerations in deciding which entries to include were variety and function. We felt that, although much of the value of the Directory and its Supplement lies in letting people who are interested in library cooperation know where to find each other, it is r"_so useful to give the reader an opportunity to look at a wide variety of cooperative agreements in a wide range of settings. In addition, we included library groups that appeared to function cooperatively, even if they were not called consortia or cooperatives.

A number of specific questions came up as the project staff attempted to agree on basic definitions of "library cooperative" or "library consortium." Some of these are given below. 7

1. IS voluntary participation of members a necessary characteristic of library cooperatives? Many groups of libraries function cooperatively by some sort of mandate from above; for example, when a state library sets up a statewide system for central processing or cooperative acquisitions, an individual librarymay have no choice about whether to join. Similarly, when the administration of a multi-campus institution decrees that the libraries of the different campuses will cooperate, the individual libaries have no choice. Ma selection criteria for the Directory excluded such mandated organizations as not being truecoopera- tives. However, since they function in a cooperative manner, we have included them in the Supplement.

2. Can a group of libraries in which one institution sells services to the others be called a cooperative? Some organizations are set up so that one insti-

tution provides services to others for a fee, as goods are sold in a store. Be- cause their activities are not cooperative in nature, we decides not to include them in the Supplement.

A variant of this type of relationship among libraries can be described as follows: Library A has a large collection and many resources.Libraries B, C, and D are smaller and have fewer materials and resources. The smaller libraries ask Library A to share its resources with them, so that their clients can have the benefit of improved library service.In some cases, this kind of agreement is arranged lo- cally and is a true cooperative. In other cases, the large library cannot afford to share its resources and no agreement can be reached. In these cases the state government sometimes steps in and provides Federal, state, or other funds to Library A that will make it possible for Library A to share its resources with Libraries B, C, and D and still continue to serve its primary clientele. Although in a sense these subsidized groupings fit the "store" model, we have included them in the Supplement because in many cases they function in a cooperative manner.

3. Is a library cooperative that is established for one particular purpose, such as the Texas Consortium for the Microfilming of the Mexican Archives (see page 175), a true cooperative? A two-part argument for excluding special-purpose groupings of libraries was advanced in staff discussions: (1) a true cooperative works to develop a broad range of cooperative activities, and (2) a true cooperative lasts longer than any one of its activities. We felt that these criteria, if rigidly applied, would eliminate several groups of libraries that were of general interest 8

to the library community; therefore, we ' .pecial-purpose groupings in the Supplement.

A special problem arose concerning whether to include the RegionalMedical Libraries of the National Library of Medicine Regional Medical LibraryProgram.. There are eleven Regional Medical Libraries (RML's) thatare supported by the Federal government for the purpose of providingresource library service to all health-oriented institutions and to individuals in the health-relatedprofessions. Three of these RML's had been included in the Directory.; theother eight had been excluded because less than 500 of their memberswere academic libraries. Some staff members felt that the RML's did not belong in either theDirectory or the Supplement, because they are not true cooperatives. However, because many of the RML's do carry out their mandates in a cooperativemanner, we decided to include six of the remaining RML's in the Supplement.*

In addition to the criteria for inclusion mentioned in Section A, above, and the specific decisions described in the preceding paragraphs,there was a time constraint: the information for an entry had to be obtainable within the time and resources available. At the point where we were forced to cut offour information-gathering efforts and prepare the manuscript for the printer, informationwas still coming in as a result of the extensive correspondencewe had initiated with people in the library field. Some entries arrived too late to be included.

*Two RML's are not included in either the Directory or the Supplement.For oLe of these, the New York and Northern New Jersey Regional Medical Library,we were not able to obtain sufficient information for an entry. For the other, the Mid- Atlantic Regional Medical Library, we were informed by our informationsource that the Library was not yet sufficiently developed to be included, ---^. -^...-- f-^-.----...--- ^-

II. OVERVIEW 11

II. OVERVIEW

This Section provides a general discussion of the data presented in the individual entries in Section III. It contains two subsections. The first, entitled Categories of Cooperating Library Groups, discusses the Supplement entries in terms of broad categories based on purpose, function, or membership. The second, entitled Comparisons, presents four tables that compare all Supplement entries on the basis of number of members, amount of budget, source of funds, and number of full-time staff members.

A. CATEGORIES OF COOPERATING LIBRARY GROUPS

To provide a framework for a general discussion of the types of cooperating library groups included in the Supplement, we divided the entries into ten categories based on purpose, function, or type of membership.Although the categories are somewhat arbitrary, and some entries could fit into more than one category, we felt that discussing the entries in this way would present.a useful overview of the cooperating library groups in the Supplement. A brief discussion of each category is presented in the following paragraphs. Table 1 shows the number of groups in each category.

1. Simple Cooperatives The Simple Cooperative is a small group of university, college, technical school, or theological school libraries that are roughly equal in size. They cooperate in order to make the resources of all member libraries available to students and faculty at all member institutions.All members tend to contribute equally and receive equal benefits.

Ten of the 29 Simple Cooperatives in the SupRlement have only two members and seven have only three members. The others have from four to twelve members. Two examples of Simple Cooperatives are the Emerson College--Suffolk University Cooperative and the La Crosse Cooperative Library Agreement.

2. Geographical Al.ea Cooperatives

Geographical Area Cooperatives typically serve a city, a metropolitan area, a county, or a group of counties, and include all types of libraries within that area of service. They tend to be larger than simple cooperatives; several of 12

the cooperatives in this category have more than 80 members, and the largest one has 112 members. Geographical Area Cooperatives are defined as those that,are organized for the purpose of improving library and information service to all library patrons in the geographical area they serve. The Green Gold Library System is an example of a Geographical Area Cooperative.

3. Union List Cooperatives We define Union List Cooperatives as groups that were formed for the purpose of producing union lists or catalogs. These groups are usually found to be associated with a geographical area such as a state (Florida Union List of Serials), a county (Cooperative Service of Queen's County Libraries), or a city (Kankakee Union List of Periodicals), and include all types of libraries in their membership. Although the primary purpose of these groups is to produce union lists, many of them have developed other cooperative activities such as interlibrary loan and reciprocal borrowing.

4. Special Subject Cooperatives The Special Subject Cooperative is one that is organized to build collections or services in special subject areas. Three of the Supplement entries that fall into this category are the African American Materials Project, the Council to Preserve Montana History, and the Midwest Universities Consortium for International Activities, Inc. (MUCIA).Most Special Subject Cooperatives have members in several states. Medical library systems and Regional Medical Libraries are included in this category.

5. State Library Cooperatives State Library Cooperatives are statewide library groups organized by a State Library or the State Department of Education to promote cooperation among libraries and to improve library service throughout a state.Some of these, such as the California State Library Processing Center, provide centralized services for the member libraries. Others, such as the Georgia Library Information Net work (GLIN), emphasize interlibrary loan and interlibrary communications. All are interested in improving access to library and information services for all citizens of their states. 14

6. Academic Cooperatives Academic Cooperatives are groups of academic libraries that serve large geographical areas, usually entire states, and that include all or most of the academic libraries in that geographical area. The activities of these groups range from reciprocal borrowing to highly organized communication and information systems. The common thread that runs through the descriptions of purposes and activities for these groups is the wish to strengthen communication and cooperation among the institutions of higher education in a given state.

7. Centralized Services Cooperatives Centralized Services Cooperatives are defined as groups of libraries that were formed to centralize certain library functions, such as book purchasing and processing, cataloging, or bibliographic services. Some of these groups, such as the Computer Aided Processing arhi Terminal Access Information Network (CAPTAIN) in New Jersey, are experimenting with the automation of technical processing services. MARC-Oklahoma (MARC-0) provides centralized bibliographic services. The Honnold Library for The Claremont Colleges in California has centralized all library collections and services for the six Claremont Colleges.

8. Single-Function Cooperatives A Single-Function Cooperative is defined as a group of libraries organized to accomplish a single purpose. While some of them do other things as well, there is one principal goal or activity that holds the group together. One example of the Single-Function Cooperative is the Regional Libraries Courier Service of Colorado, which facilitates interlibrary loan and interlibrary cooperation by operating a daily delivery service for a group of 49 libraries.Another example is the San Diego Community College Film Library Cooperative, which was established to circulate films to community colleges. A third example is the Texas Consortium for the Microfilming of the Mexican Archives, a group of 16 academic libraries that are cooperating to microfilm archives in different geographical areas in Mexico.

9. Inter-Campus Cooperatives Inter-Campus Cooperatives are composed of the libraries of different campuses of the same University. These groups are principally concerned with facilitating interlibrary loan among the campuses, promoting library cooperation in joint 15

research projects, cooperating in acquisitions and processing, and exploring the possibility of automating some library functions. Some examples are the Council of Chief Librarians of City University of New York, the University of California Library Automation Program (UC-LAP), and the University of Wisconsin Northeastern Inter-Campus Library Cooperative.

10. Resource Cooperatives Resource Cooperatives are those that were established to allow small libraries to share the collections and resources of large libraries.For example, the purpose of the Maryland Interlibrary Loan Network is to make the resources of the Enoch Pratt Free Library available to all other libraries in the state. The Interuniversity Library Council Reference and Interlibrary Loan Service (IULC- RAILS) in Ohio states its purpose as follows: "To share the collection of Ohio State University with the smaller schools." In another approach, four universities* in Illinois are cooperating to subsidize an interlibrary loan specialist at the University of Illinois in Urbana. The specialist works to expedite interlibrary loan among the five universities.

B. COMPARISONS

In the preceding section, we discussed general characteristics of different types of library cooperatives that are included in the Supplement. In this section, we compare all 135 cooperating library groups described in the

Supplement with respect to four specific characteristics: (1) number of members, (2) amount of budget, (3) sources of funds, and (4) number of full-time staff members. These comparisons will provide a somewhat different overview of the information in the Supplement entries.

1. Number of Members Of a total of 135, 14 groups described in the Supplement have only two members; three groups have over 100 members. About 73% of the total have 20 or fewer members; about 19% of the total have 21 or more members; and about 8% of the total did not provide information on the number of members. Table 2 shows a tabulation of the number of members for all 135 Supplement entries.

2. Amount of Budget Twenty-one groups in the Supplement did not specify the amounts of their budgets. Some of these remained unspecified because they depend on government appropriations or on fees for services and therefore fluctuate from year to year. This group represents 15% of the total. Another 35% (48 groups) reported "No formal budget." Generally, this means that the costs of the cooperative activities are absorbed by each member library. Sixty-six of the groups provided us with the amounts of their budgets. A tabulation of the amounts is presented in Table 3.

3. Sources of Funds Of the 135 entries, 42 (31%) do not give a source of funds. Almost all of these are entries that report "No formal budget" (see item 2, above).Forty-eight of the entries show a single source of funds and forty-six entries show multiple sources. We tabulated the single-source and multiple-source group; the results are displayed in Table 4.

4. Number of Full-Time Staff Members The information we were able to obtain on staffing was not sufficiently detailed to permit tabulating it in Full-Time equivalents; still, we felt that some comparison of staff would be useful. Fifty-seven of the groups in the Supplement reported no staff except the regular staff of the member libraries. This represents 42% of the total. Eleven entries, or 8%, show all staff as being part-time. Five entries (4%) do not include the number of staff members. Table 5 presents a tabulation of the number of full-time staff members. 18
