Stay connected with your community
Are you a member of the OCLC Community Center?
Thousands of library staff connect in the Community Center to ask and answer questions, share experiences, and contribute ideas. It’s the best place for current OCLC customers to keep up to date, make suggestions, and learn from colleagues and OCLC experts. It’s also where questions related to services are more likely to be reviewed, responded to, and addressed quickly by the most qualified members of specific communities.
You can use your existing OCLC credentials to access the product communities that correspond with your institution's subscriptions. For more information about credentials and how to sign-in to the Community Center, review Sign in to the OCLC Community Center.
