The Center for Research Libraries (CRL) is a consortium of North American universities, colleges and independent research libraries.
The consortium acquires and preserves newspapers, journals, documents, archives and other traditional and digital resources for research and teaching. These resources are then made available to member institutions cooperatively, through interlibrary loan and electronic delivery. USC is a member institution. Bibliographic access to more than 600,000 titles held at CRL is available through its online catalog.
