<p style="direction: ltr; margin: 0in; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">
<b>Based on the findings of the survey, and follow-up discussion at the most recent Steering Committee meeting, the MI-SPI 2.0 Steering Committee recommends the group move retention data to Gold Rush. The cost for making the move is $900 per library for institutions
with up to 1 million records. </b>This is a yearly charge. Moving retention records to Gold Rush gives libraries access to the group data for assessment and comparison. While all retention data for each participating library has been saved, there is currently
no way for libraries to review, compare and work with the group data. Visit the <span style="color: rgb(70, 120, 134);">

Along with discussing Gold Rush, the option of moving MI-SPI 2.0 from MCLS to the Eastern Academic Scholars’ Trust (EAST) was considered by the Steering Committee.
<span style="color: black;">One benefit to moving to Gold Rush is that it would enable MI-SPI to align with

</a></u></span><span style="color: black;">more seamlessly in the future if that is a direction the group wishes to explore. We can schedule a meeting with EAST staff so the MI-SPI community can learn more about how other statewide/consortial groups work with
EAST. For now, the focus is on moving data to Gold Rush.</span></p>

<p style="direction: ltr; margin: 0in; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><b>Please share if your library supports the Steering Committee recommendation that MI-SPI 2.0 libraries move data to Gold Rush. The date for responding is November 22, 2024. Once we know the libraries interested in making the
move, a session with Gold Rush will be scheduled.</b></span></p>
<p style="direction: ltr; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">As you probably know, I am retiring on November 1, 2024. The new MCLS eLicensing and Collection Resources (eLCR) Manager, Sarah Beaubien, will lead MI-SPI moving
forward. Sarah’s experience with MI-SPI during her tenure at Grand Valley State University is a great asset and will serve the group well! It has been a pleasure working with MI-SPI 2.0 over the past five years and I wish the group continued success.</span></p>
