Hi Susan! The Cooperative Directors Association is in the process of developing a reciprocal borrowing agreement that all participants of the "new Michicard" (we're still working on a name) will have their Boards approve. You'll see more information in September.

one issue that I can see being a real problem, if we grant former Michicard users Melcat visiting patron status, and they pick a new book off the shelf (which is not loaned out through MelCat until it is taken off new status) tehy will walk up to circulation and not be able to check it out. Am I wrong on that assumption? Again, sometimes when something works, there is no real reason to get rid of it. ** /Susan Wess, M.L.I.S.
