If not, then it's time to get to know MeL by visiting  MeL.org. MeL allows users to search across a host of quality information resources, many of which cannot be found elsewhere on the Internet - all available absolutely free to Michigan residents, 24 hours a day/seven days a week from home, work, school or the library.

 

Anyone looking for the best information around, whether for a work project, school assignment, career or health information pursuits, can benefit from this powerful and easy-to-use resource. MeL.org features an array of valuable services, including: MeL Databases, MeL Featured Resources & Gateways, MeL Michigana and, of course, MeLCat, resource-sharing service that allows GPPL patrons to search for, locate and request materials from a single, comprehensive catalog that includes the holdings of other libraries around the state.
