About BCR

Your library…powered by BCR.

We offer a broad range of solutions and our hands-on, personal attention to each customer enables us to deliver effective and timely solutions that help libraries keep pace with new developments in technology and services. BCR is the nation’s oldest and most established multistate library cooperative. Since 1935, the BCR team has helped libraries learn new skills, reach new customers, increase productivity and save money.

Mission Statement

BCR's mission is to bring libraries together for greater success by expanding their knowledge, reach and power.

Strategic Priorities

• Increase visibility and awareness of BCR among current and high-potential customers, collaborators, influencers and partners.
• Redefine and reposition BCR as a nimble collaborative organization distinct from OCLC that meets the needs of libraries and other identified constituencies.
• Provide greater benefit to libraries and increase BCR’s long-term sustainability by developing new earned income products and services that diversify and build on BCR’s core competencies. Develop a corporate culture to continuously market test, launch and assess new ventures.
• Begin repositioning BCR for the future by making significant investments in both technology and human resources.
