An existence result for an abstract nonlocal boundary value problem, is given, where A(t) determines a linear evolution operator, L is linear, and F and B are multivalued. To avoid compactness conditions, the weak topology is employed. The result applies also in nonreflexive spaces under a hypothesis concerning the De Blasi measure of noncompactness. Even in the case of initial value problems, the required condition is essentially milder than previously known results.
