In addition to the core print and electronic collections provided by the Foundation Center, TCCL librarians target the additional interests and needs of area nonprofit managers, employees and volunteers by providing reference and circulating collections. A search in the Library’s catalog will locate materials relevant to your nonprofit’s need. In addition to traditional print materials, a series of guides has been developed to supplement the library’s collections. The guides are a collection of websites that aim to provide additional support and meet the needs of Tulsa-area nonprofits.
