| The Monterey Bay Area Cooperative Library System (MOBAC) is a multi-type
library consortium of 19 full members (public, academic and special) and
several networking members in Monterey, San Benito and Santa Cruz counties
on the California Central Coast. MOBAC began in 1969 as a public library
cooperative and by 1985 had grown to include academic and special libraries
as equal members in the organization. It is now one of 15 cooperative library
systems in California and is funded in part by the State through the California
Library Services Act and by fees collected from member libraries.
The MOBAC libraries work together to share resources to improve library services to the residents of all the members' jurisdictions. Library patrons pay no direct fees for use of MOBAC services. MOBAC is governed by an Administrative Council composed of the director or liaison of each member. The Council meets regularly to set policy and direction for the system | ||
