A new service from the Michigan Cooperative Directors Association,
MILibraryCard, is being launched and will begin on January 1,
2014! MILibraryCard is a new reciprocal borrowing program for
public and academic libraries in the state of Michigan.
Participating libraries will loan printed materials to patrons
from other participating libraries that have a MILibraryCard
sticker on their library card.
It couldn't be easier! Just have your board/authorized
representative review the guidelines, agree to and sign the
MILibraryCard reciprocal borrowing agreement, and forward the
agreement to the Suburban Library Cooperative. You can then order
labels for your patrons' cards and window clings for your library!
We've got a website, but it's not ready yet! The address is
http://www.milibrarycard.org . We'll have the guidelines,
agreement, list of participating libraries, label information
(0.02 - 0.03/label), and window cling information ($1/cling) all
in one place. It will be up and running next week!
The guidelines and agreement are attached so you can talk to
your staff and boards about participating. We'll keep the list of
participating libraries updated daily so you know where the
service will be available!
If you have any questions, please contact me at
turgeont@libcoop.net .
