If A： D（A） X→X is a densely defined and closed linear operator, which generates a linear semigroup S （t） in Banach space X. The nonlocal control/ability for the following nonlocal semilinear problems： u＇ （t） = Au （t） ＋ Bx（ t） ＋ f（ t, u（t） ）, 0≤t ≤ T with nonlocal initial condition u（0） = u0 ＋ g（u） is discussed in Banach space X. The results show that if semigroup S（t） is strongly continuous, the functionsf and g are compact and the control B is bounded, then it is nonlocally controllable. The nonlocal controllability for the above nonlocal problem is also studied when B and W are unbounded and the semigroup S（t） is compact or strongly continuous. For illustration, a partial differential equation is worked out.
