There are at least four well known Very Long Baseline Interferometer (VLBI) networks that provide open access to astronomers around the world. These include the EVN, VLBA, CMVA and APT/LBA. In this paper I have chosen to focus on a sub-set of these facilities, in particular the European VLBI Network, both in stand-alone mode but also as a major component of a Global VLBI Network, involving MERLIN and the VLBA.
