Save the date! In July, MCLS and the Library of Michigan will be coming to a location near you to share information about recent developments/projects in Michigan’s library community, including a half-day session devoted to all things MeLCat and RIDES. Choose from seven opportunities to participate in one of these regional meetings and MeLCat Symposiums. The morning session will be updates about special library projects and initiatives.
