Library resource sharing through OCLC’s Christian Library Network
An annual subscription for your library to ACL’s journal, The Christian Librarian
The ability to send one non-ACL member from your library to the ACL Annual Conference at the member rate ($90 savings)
Who can join the Christian Library Consortium (CLC)?
Any Christian academic institution of higher education who has at least one full individual ACL member.
