The Center for Research Libraries (also known by its acronym, CRL) is a consortium of North American universities, colleges, and independent research libraries, based on a buy-in concept for membership of the consortia. The consortium acquires and preserves traditional and digital resources for research and teaching and makes them available to member institutions through interlibrary loan and electronic delivery. The CRL is preservation source, as well maintain their collections. The Center for Research Libraries was founded in 1949, as the Midwest Inter-Library Center (MILC). The traditional role of the CRL was as an aggregator of tangible collection materials, however this has been updated in the digital age into the CRL's current role as a facilitator of collection development, digitization, and licensing collections by individual libraries and interest groups. This transformation required the CRL to adopt new funding models from partnerships with key organizations, and an updated use of current technology to support community outreach and engagement.〔 The funding was provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the National Science Foundation, and the IMLS. ==History== When the Center for Research Libraries was founded in 1949, it was a product of the post World War II era, and focused specifically on print materials. It was established by 10 Mid-western universities, and was established to support humanities studies and social science research efforts. The CRL was originally built to manage a shared collection that no one university could maintain, and contents included foreign newspapers, government documents, microform archives, historic journals, foreign dissertations, and other material identified as critical to research.〔
