contents The Founding of the Western Interstate Library Coordinating Organization: A Narrative Final Report on the Project "Initiating the Design and Development of a Western Interstate Bibliographic Network." Pearson, Karl M. Montague, Eleanor A. Bibliographies Interstate Programs Library Networks Professional Continuing Education Program Descriptions Program Design Program Development Regional Cooperation Regional Libraries Research Resources With the assistance of a grant from the Council on Library Resources, and funding and guidance from the Western Council of State Librarians, the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education's (WICHE) Continuing Education and Library Resources Program undertook an action research project to design and implement an interstate bibliographic network in the 17 westernmost states and the Canadian province of British Columbia. In the course of the project, it was determined that existing organizations were capable of providing operational support for networking, but that no group other than the Western Council was in a position to coordinate state and multistate research, analysis, plans, policies, and continuing education for library resource sharing. The WICHE library program was therefore renamed the Western Interstate Library Coordinating Organization (WILCO) and was redirected to offer a forum for investigating regional library concerns, to catalyze and facilitate interstate resource sharing, and to coordinate regional interests with national library network planning. This report concentrates on the most significant events of the year-long project. (Author)
