Professional Collection and Kits

<<< Back

The System provides member libraries access to an extensive collection of literature, kits, and tools to support professional development, programming, and collection maintenance.

SEKnFind member libraries may request most items by placing a hold. Non-SEKnFind libraries may request most items through SHAREit.

Some of these materials must be picked up from and returned to the System offices in Iola due to their size, weight, and/or fragility.
