OCLC Offers 20% Off Language Sets for Libraries in New York This Spring

OCLC’s Language Sets program is designed to help libraries that wish to expand their non-English collections, but that may not have the expertise on staff to select or catalog non-English materials. Language Sets are collections of non-English books and/or DVDs in various languages on different subject and for different audience levels, ready to be delivered to your library complete with full-level OCLC MARC records. Language Sets are now available in 14 languages, including Arabic, Chinese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.

Now until May 15th 2007, libraries that are new purchasers of Language Sets will get a 5th set free when they order 4 sets, and will also receive 20% off ALL SETS in the first order.

For more information about Language Sets please visit: http://www.oclc.org/languagesets/ or contact Meghan Hopkins, Language Sets Specialist at OCLC, at 1-800-898-6252 ex. 3805, for more information about this special offer to Nylink libraries.
