Who We Are

The Statewide California Electronic Library Consortium (SCELC) was established in 1986 to develop resource-sharing relationships among the libraries of private academic institutions in California. See a map of all the SCELC libraries.

What We Do

The consortium seeks to explore issues related to electronic and digital information and to promote the creation, access, use, management and maintenance of this information for the benefit of faculty and students in the member institutions. It further seeks to improve related library staff skills through development and training activities. While regional in its membership focus, SCELC is committed to cooperative relationships with other library consortia and professional organizations and welcomes opportunities for joint projects and programs that contribute to enhancement of information resources in the region.

Announcing Vendor Day 2009

SCELC members and librarians from other academic library consortia are cordially invited to attend SCELC’s 12th Annual Vendor Day, which will be held at Loyola Marymount University on Monday, March 9, 2009 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Vendors: Be sure to get your Vendor Registration Form in early because SCELC has limited space for vendors at Vendor Day 2009 and may not be able to accommodate all applying vendors.
