Main Library To Close To Launch New Catalog System

The McAllen Public Library will be closing its doors to launch a new catalog system at the Main Library at 601 N. Main St., on Tuesday September 28 and Wednesday, September 29. Meanwhile, services will remain open at the two library branches but will have reduced services on those days.
Recognizing the need for a more modern online catalog to complement its ultramodern new library, McAllen Public Library has initiated plans to acquire the LS2 Public Access Catalog by The Library Corporation. It will be available to the public online from any location and in person at all library locations beginning Thursday, September 30, 2010.
“Construction of the new Main Library is proceeding at a pace that may allow the new McAllen Public Library to open in less than one year from now,” said Jose Gamez, Library Director. He added, “The implementation of a new cutting edge catalog system is one of the most important things we will do for the future of our library system.”
