I'd like to especially direct your attention to the collection statistics on the final page. Items shared via Advantage Plus have effectively doubled the size of our collection for all of patrons. The Board would like to strongly encourage any of our members
who don't currently participate in this program to join in - particularly any library serving a community of over 20,000. Your patrons will still get priority use of the shared titles, and you have control over what you choose to share with the rest of the
consortium. If you'd like more information about how to participate, please email me directly at jmcinnes@mppl.org.</div>
