IFLA-OCLC Fellowship program, jointly sponsored by the American Theological Library Association, the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), OCLC Online Computer Library Center and OCLC PICA, provides early career development and continuing education for library and information science professionals from countries with developing economies. The program includes lectures, seminars and mentoring and gives Fellows opportunities to explore topics including information technologies, library operations and management, and global cooperative librarianship. The Fellows visit selected North American and European libraries, cultural heritage institutions and library organizations. The Fellows also observe portions of an OCLC Members Council meeting, gaining insight into issues affecting global library cooperation and the governance of a global library cooperative. Fellows give presentations about their home countries and libraries, meet leading practitioners and discuss real-world solutions to the challenges facing libraries today.
