SUMMARY:McNaughton Info Session & Demo for VALE
DESCRIPTION:Register here: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMsdOyurzMrGdAeJzDW4N45X0y-I8ua5Kmk \n  \nMcNaughton is a subscription program designed to help libraries keep up with popular\, high-demand titles without committing to permanent purchases. Libraries can lease current\, high-interest titles that might have fluctuating demand\, like bestsellers or popular genres\, allowing them to refresh their collections more easily as reader interests shift. \nLibraries using McNaughton can exchange books throughout their lease period\, helping to manage shelf space and budget more efficiently. It’s a great way for libraries to respond to patron demand without necessarily increasing their permanent holdings.
