Greetings!

As we continue to work toward our MeL.org and database transition in a few weeks, we have some info to share to help you in your planning.

• Database URLs will be available at some point in the next week or so.

• The new MeL.org site will be live on 9/27. Our new site will have the new database links available.

• The expiring direct database links will be available 9/27-9/30 on the MCLS site.

• The Get Ready page on the MeL.org site will only be available on our current site. When we transition to the new MeL.org on September 27, that page will no longer exist. After September 27, these materials will be available in the Library Staff support section on the redesigned MeL.org.

Until September 27, details about the database transition are available on our “Get Ready for October 1” page.

If you have questions, please direct them to meldatabaseshelp@mcls.org.

Best,

Liz
