IT'S OFFICIAL

Following a “Building the Future” day on March 22, 2004,  with the members, boards, and staffs of CMLS and SLS, both boards met separately to vote on whether or not the merger should take place. Both boards voted unanimously that, on July 1, 2004, CMLS and SLS will become one system.

The transition board then met to approve the combined System Area and Per-capita grant application, during which time they discussed and approved the name for the new system. On July 1, 2004, we will become METROPOLITAN LIBRARY SYSTEM.

A special thanks to the membership, board and staff of both systems who worked so hard to make this happen.
