In fulfilling our mission to improve library resources, provide leadership in resource sharing, and promote new technologies, many CDLC programs focus on regional automation. The Regional Automation Advisory Committee (RAAC) works with CDLC staff, member libraries, and other CDLC committees to develop long-range plans as well as to plan and implement specific programs. In the past, many regional automation programs were supported through New York State Regional Bibliographic Databases (RBDB) program aid, and RAAC had major responsibility for determining the focus of these funds. Funding now comes through NYS General Aid, and RAAC no longer holds that responsibility.
