Hello everyone,

Happy 2016!  Back in October, 2015, MeL celebrated the new fiscal year and added some resources to the databases line-up.  The Military and Intelligence Database Collection was included.  Have you had a chance to explore it yet?  As one of the resources in the Gale Cengage family, all of the tools and features you’ve grown to appreciate are included – Topic Finder, Google integration, bookmarking, highlights, and more.  In the collection you’ll find access to scholarly and popular materials and reports covering military affairs, government policies, armed forces, and defense topics, among others.   Search any of the world’s current hot topics and you’ll find current and historical information to inform your research.  Michigan residents or Michigan library access only.

MeL Minutes are brought to you by the Library of Michigan.  Want more information on MeL?  Stay tuned for next week’s MeL Minute available on many Michigan library listservs, email us at contact@mel.org or visit mel.org.  We encourage you to share MeL Minutes with your public service colleagues.
