Abstract

Cleveland Public Library has cataloged non-English materials for its collection since its establishment in 1869. To this day, Cleveland continues to have areas of high ethnic concentration. The Library now catalogs materials in forty-five languages and has one of the largest non-English collections among public libraries in the United States, consisting of 214,000 volumes In its Foreign Literature Department. Materials for new immigrants from Eastern Europe and the Near and Far East have expanded the non-English collections as CPL has responded to the information and reading needs of the new arrivals. Cataloging procedures have been streamlined to move materials as quickly as possible to circulation shelves. Cleveland Public budgets over $130,000 for non-English materials, and support from library administration continues to be high.
