MLSA Status
by Riley, Randy (MDE) 14 Dec '18

14 Dec '18

FYI... This has been a frustrating week with MLSA. The legislation has stalled in the House. Details are covered in this ALA Washington Office blog post: https://americanlibrariesmagazine.org/blogs/the-scoop/mlsa-museum-library-s…<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Famericanli…>. COSLA members from key states (Wisconsin, California) as well as those from states with House co-sponsors (Oklahoma, Texas) have been active all week along with ALA Washington Office staff and others to reach Speaker Ryan and Rep. McCarthy, two individuals who can still make MLSA happen in the house. Will share more information as I hear it. r. Randy Riley State Librarian

The Icebreaker Mackinaw The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Mackinaw was built during World War II to keep wintertime shipping lanes open. Wartime demands for steel required ships to sail year-round with cargos of iron ore, limestone, and coal. The icebreaker Mackinaw was commissioned in 1944. From her home port of Cheboygan, Michigan, she kept Great Lakes shipping lanes open until a new Mackinaw replaced her in 2006. You can visit the original Mackinaw, now a museum ship, in Mackinaw City.
