North Star Library Consortium

The North Star Library Consortium provides a web-based centralized library catalog and management system for the school and special libraries of Minnesota. It began as a joint project of Northern Lights Library Network and Region 1, Moorhead. It is now available statewide. The Follett Destiny software is centrally hosted and administered at Region I, in Moorhead, MN. Training and administration of the Consortium is provided by NLLN from Detroit Lakes, MN, in cooperation with other Minnesota multitype library systems.
