MnKnows is a shiny new portal for all of the statewide services offered to Minnesotans through Minitex and their local libraries. From one nice, crisp page, users can go to the MnLink Gateway to find materials not available locally, find databases at ELM4You, search the Reflections Collection of the Minnesota Digital Library, use the Research Project Calculator, and click into AskMn--The Librarian Is In. There is even a link to find your local library. A very handy stop on the research path.
If you haven't promoted AskMn--The Librarian Is In to your students, do so. This is a 24/7 live reference service. Librarians are standing by to answer questions on any topic or to provide research help to college students. AskMn is brought to you by Minitex and participating public and academic libraries. Questions asked during library hours are answered by these Minnesota libraries; after hours questions are answered by librarians that are awake elsewhere. You need a Minnesota public library card to access AskMn.
A Google search on MnKnows returns this, "Did you mean minnows?"
