Funding for OCLC subscriptions

Library and Archives Canada (LAC) covers the costs of two OCLC subscriptions for eligible small public and academic Canadian libraries. We accept funding applications once a year in the fall.

Funded subscriptions are for one year (April 1 to March 31). Libraries that received funding during the previous fiscal years are automatically qualified for future funding and do not need to reapply. LAC may periodically review the funding and require that libraries re-apply.

We will review your request within 6 weeks of the closing date for applications.
