Other Functions
ARKLink member libraries participate in a statewide reciprocal borrowing program using the ARKLink Card, allowing students to borrow books from other participating members.

ARKLink member libraries also participate in a courier service delivering materials to member libraries quickly and inexpensively.

ARKLink libraries steward our funds through cooperative purchasing and collection building programs enabling member libraries to maximize their materials budgets.

ARKLink is governed by a Board of Directors, an Advisory Committee, and delegates from each member institution. A memorandum of understanding and bylaws provide policies and procedures for the work of ARKLink.
