[Michlib-l] Student ID numbers as library cards

[Andy Schuck]

I recently viewed the Library of Michigan SRP webinar about the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Libraries use of student ID numbers as a limited library card (ex. access to online content, 10 book/audiobook limit, no CDs/DVDs, more info here: https://www.cmlibrary.org/oneaccess).  We have talked among our library leadership about the logistics of a One Access-type student account for Westland students and were curious if there are any other public libraries in Michigan pursuing something similar with their school district.  Specifically, we are curious how your school district boundaries mirror your library district boundaries? Also, how are (or will) your services for students under this card be different from current resident cards? Thanks in advance for your help!
