Hamline University Library and Archives
As a founding member of Cooperating Libraries in Consortium (CLIC), and following 52 years of continuous CLIC membership, Bush Library transitioned away from CLIC and began a new affiliation with another well known Minnesota library consortium–MnPALS.
MnPALS is a much larger network of academic libraries, including former CLIC partner libraries, regional community colleges, state, government, public, and other special libraries. The switch became effective July 7, 2021.
Some Bush Library services have changed to varying degrees to accommodate and take advantage of this new relationship. A few of these changes include:
modifications in how we lend and borrow from other libraries on your behalf (interlibrary loan)
the roster of libraries in our area that provide on site access to Hamline students, faculty, and staff
design of the online search interface
some aspects of the functionality you use to perform searches for library materials
HamCAT was selected as the new name for the Bush Library research discovery tool, previously known as "CLICsearch."
Leganto lists are again available for editing and updates. Contact the library if you have questions.
Questions or concerns about your library account or access to library materials?: Contact your liaison librarian or the Central Service Desk (CSD).
