DALNET Members Go Live in MeLCat
Participating DALNET libraries are now live for borrowing in
MeLCat. The DALNET office is pleased that this new resource
sharing service is now available to DALNET patrons.
MeLCat will be working throughout the beginning of November to finish
loading approximately 750,000 bibliographic records from DALNET
libraries. Once the records are loaded DALNET members will also
participate in lending resources through this state-wide interlibrary
loan service.
