Why should my school join RILINK?

The major benefit is increased access to books and information for your students and teachers. As of March 2006 sixty-four RILINK school libraries are sharing more than 500,000 books and other materials, with access to millions more through their membership in the statewide library network. RILINK member school libraries also get significant discounts on library software and for subscriptions to online full-text databases and other services. Schools can also join our RICAT system, a web-based shared system for school libraries, similar to the academic (HELIN, InRHODE) and public library (CLAN) systems in Rhode Island.
