Title: *In-person* MeLCat Refresher Training for DCB MeLCat Libraries (Lansing, MI)

Class Description: Do you use a DCB server for processing MeLCat requests at your library? Are you new to it? Do you want to know why you have to include a paging slip, a book band or label, and a delivery label on every MeLCat item you send out? Then this class is for you! This is an in-person hands-on workshop for people who do the day-to-day processing of MeLCat requests. It is specifically for libraries already live on the system. We will cover the current MeLCat policies and procedures as well as lending and borrowing practices. Come with questions!

The MeL project was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services through the Library of Michigan.
