The Dublin nonprofit that electronically connects library collections 
around the world is letting go of one of its divisions.

OCLC Inc., formerly the Online Computer Library Center, on Wednesday 
announced a deal to sell its Boulder, Colo.-based NetLibrary Inc. unit to 
research database giant EBSCO Publishing for an undisclosed sum. The 
NetLibrary unit makes digital copies of books from hundreds of publishers 
worldwide and makes them available through member library sites.

Buyer EBSCO Publishing is a subsidiary of Birmingham, Ala.-based EBSCO 
Industries Inc., a more than $2 billion company with about 6,400 
employees.

For OCLC, shedding NetLibrary allows it to sharpen its focus on its 
flagship WorldCat database, which provides online cataloguing, reference 
and resource sharing to tens of thousands of libraries around the world.
