These pages are updated periodically. The list displays the union list holdings of the owning Code signers, in alphabetical order by OCLC symbol. The RSAC is particularly concerned with the ratios set forth in Section III, B.7 . The guidelines are intended to distribute as much as possible the burden of resource sharing among all signers of the Code.

If as a borrower, a library exceeds the recommended borrowing to lending ratio, then the RSAC expects the library to far exceed the minimum requirements of a lender. In deciding what action to take, the RSAC reviews as many as three calendar years of OCLC ILL activity for a library. The Code applies to OCLC ILL activity only.
