Canadian Urban Libraries Council

The Canadian Urban Libraries Council / Conseil des Bibliothèques Urbaines du Canada (CULC/CBUC) was formally incorporated in 2008. CULC/CBUC members are the 48 largest public library systems in Canada, along with Library and Archives Canada and the Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec. For more than 25 years CULC/CBUC has met, and worked under different names to better library service in Canada’s populated urban areas. CULC/CBUC’s mission is to facilitate advocacy, collaboration, and research that strengthens and promotes the value of Canada’s urban libraries as integral to a vibrant democracy, a strong economy, and thriving communities. It conducts research to create, analyze, and disseminate information that will further the mission of the organization. It aims to strengthen the capacity of urban libraries to anticipate and respond to the needs of the community. It enables its members to transfer knowledge, share information with CULC/CBUC, and to advance the urban agenda.
