Up North Digital participating libraries
Beginning in December 2019, a new master contract was established for the consortium that is managed by the directors of Northland Library Cooperative and Mid-Michigan Library League. There is a Steering Committee for the consortium, as well as Collection Development Teams. The Participation Agreement and Collection Development Policy are the guiding documents for the consortium. Pricing is based on an average between population served and percentage of total circulation. If you join July 1 or later, the price is half of the annual amount. You will be added to the consortium listserv and the vendor will set you up so that your patrons will have access to the service.
