Cool Site: the new Michigan eLibrary (MeL)

Debra writes “The Library of Michigan recently unveiled the newest version of the Michigan eLibrary (MeL). Available free to Michigan residents, the revamped MeL features an easy-to-use gateway and the ability to search for information across a variety of quality information resources, many of which are not available via a typical Internet search.

MeL features an array of powerful services that cut across a mix of information resources, including:

MeLCat – a valuable resource-sharing service that removes geographic barriers, effectively allowing users to search for books and other materials from an ever-growing collection of participating libraries’ holdings and have those materials delivered to participating local libraries.”
