1 Introduction In April 2010, OCLC introduced the membership report, “How libraries stack up: 2010.” You can find a PDF of that report here: www.oclc.org/reports/stackup/.www.oclc.org/reports/stackup/ At the request of member libraries, we are also making the report available as two PowerPoint documents, downloadable from that same Web site. One, with “OCLC” in the filename, is a simple conversion of the printed report into PowerPoint to be shown “as is.” The second (this file) is a “blank” version that you can use to highlight the great work your library does in the community. We hope you find the idea useful, and that the graphics and examples can help you promote your library to users and funding bodies.
