Based in Albany, New York, Nylink members are located in New York state and surrounding areas. Nylink’s 300 plus member institutions include academic libraries, public libraries, library systems, corporate libraries, court libraries, government agency libraries, gardens, museums and other cultural heritage organizations. Additionally, Nylink has more than 2,000 affiliate institutions who participate in or acquire services Nylink offers. Nylink announced in May, 2010, that the organization will phase out its operations over the next 12 months, with permanent closure planned for May 2011. Steep declines in Nylink’s revenue as a result of fundamental changes in its business environment have seriously degraded Nylink’s ability to remain fully self-supporting. Nylink staff will continue to serve members through the coming year. HistoryNylink was founded in 1973 as the SUNY/OCLC Network, providing access and support to OCLC’s core services (cataloging and resource sharing) for New York State libraries. Nylink originated as one of fifteen regional service providers (RSPs) for OCLC, developed to provide personalized support for a suite of OCLC services.[2] In April 1999, the SUNY/OCLC Network changed its name to Nylink to reflect its more diverse membership and services.[3] Nylink is governed by the Nylink Advisory Board, made up of representatives from all constituencies of Nylink members, elected by the membership. CollaborationNylink’s mission is "Supporting Libraries through Collaboration and Innovation.” Nylink accomplishes this through working with other NYS library organizations and other regional service providers, as well as working for libraries to provide training, support, and advocacy.
Nylink has partnered with the Northeast Document Conservation Center,[4] ENY/ACRL, the Eastern New York division of the Association of College and Research Libraries,[5] the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services (ALCT),[6] LITA, the Library and Information Technology Association, and many other organization to provide training for librarians and information professionals. Nylink works with the New York State Library Association, participating on the conference program committee, NYLA sections and by supporting its annual conference as an exhibitor.[7] Nylink works with the New York State Higher Education Initiative (NYSHEI),[8] recently negotiating an Elsevier [9] contract for NYSHEI and Nylink to provide a substantial cost saving for New York libraries. Nylink works with New York’s 3Rs Councils (NY3R’s) [10] to support NYS libraries, collaborating on training, providing access to databases, cataloging, and resource sharing. Resource sharing across New YorkLAND , a statewide ground delivery service for transporting materials between participating libraries, was created and is administered by Nylink. For a flat annual rate, LAND participants can send and receive an unlimited number of items. LAND will remain available through December 2010. In January 2004, Nylink began working with SUNY Geneseo [11] to support the Information Delivery Service (IDS) pilot program. The IDS Project is a cooperative resource sharing system designed to implement and evaluate a set of common transaction objectives, policies, and procedures among participating libraries that will help optimize mutual access to the information resources contained within those libraries. The foundation of the project is based upon each participating library meeting the performance standards outlined in the IDS Project contract, using the OCLC ILLiad Resource Sharing Management System and the LAND Delivery System. IDS has gained attention nationwide through the ATLAS ILLiad conferences. Additional servicesNylink will continue to offer databases, E-book and journals, online encyclopedias, and other electronic resources to libraries at discounted rates for the next year.[12] Nylink serves as the administrator on behalf of libraries, working with vendors, and providing the libraries with fiscal services and support. Nylink also offers consulting services on a wide range of subject areas.
