The proper motion (pm) of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) relative to four background quasi-stellar objects is determined using CCD data obtained at the Cassegrain focus of the CTIO 1.5-m telescope, between 1989 and 2001. The background quasar projected at the center of each field is used as a fiducial point of reference to obtain the pm of the center of the LMC.
