The MNLINK Gateway Operations Committee met on Thursday, May 5 at the Hennepin County Brookdale Library. At the meeting, it was decided to discontinue use of the term “gateway” in connection with MNLINK.  The interface is now officially named “MNLINK.”

There have been recent opportunities for library staff to learn more about how MNLINK Discovery will work as we move toward full implementation in late summer or early fall. Cynthia DuChane, OCLC Project Manager for MNLINK, provided two webinars and presented a breakout session at the Minitex ILL Conference.  

The MNLINK Marketing Committee continues to develop materials to be used to inform library staff and users about the new system. More information and training on the new interface will be provided in advance of the implementation date. 

The Minitex Public Library Node Meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, August 24, 2016, at Hennepin County Brookdale Library. This will be an opportunity for public library staff to learn more about the changes coming to MNLINK Discovery. Registration information will be available in early July.
