Nylink has entered into a series of partnerships with like organizations to offer True Serials^TM on a national basis. Lyrasis, WiLS (Wisconsin Library Service), OHIONET, and MLNC (Missouri Library Network Corporation) have all signed on to distribute True Serials to their membership. Below is part of a press release from Lyrasis announcing the new partnership:

LYRASIS and Nylink are pleased to announce a strategic partnership that will offer True Serials, a comprehensive serials holdings maintenance service to information organizations.

LYRASIS’ extensive product offerings now include True Serials by Nylink. Built on a knowledge base that includes over 500 database and serials aggregation packages, True Serials facilitates accurate inward and outward facing serials holdings and offers streamlined local holdings updates to common resource sharing platforms. "True Serials, the first of several new services Nylink will be introducing over the next year, represents a major step in fulfilling our commitment to offer low-cost, high-efficiency solutions and choices," said Dave Penniman, Executive Director of Nylink.

Core Services Include:
• Hosted Electronic Resources Management
• A-Z list service
• OpenURL Link Resolver
• Participation in Nylink’s group local holdings maintenance service
• Standard and customized statistical reports
• Optional MARC record services

"True Serials is an affordable option for any library. However, because the service is hosted, smaller libraries and libraries lacking an electronic resources librarian or serials librarian will experience a greater benefit," added Randy Bell, LYRASIS Program Development Manager.

We look forward to working with all of our new partners to offer this cost-effective hosted service to libraries across the US.
