To help Minitex celebrate its 50th anniversary, retired staff member Carol Nelson led an effort to reproduce a presentation originally created in 1978 to showcase Minitex services for libraries in the region. Thanks to Carol's efforts (and the efforts of several other active and retired staff members), the presentation is now available online.
On July 24, 1970, Alice Wilcox issued the MINITEX Pilot Project Report. In the report's recommendations, she wrote, "it is in the public interest to provide access to the major bibliographic collections for all citizens with information needs." Without the 15 libraries that participated, the pilot project could never have succeeded.
