The Council provides leadership and governance to a consortium of 18 libraries, including the 14 Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education university libraries and the four state affiliate universities.
“I am honored to represent The Lincoln University, as a member of the council,” Roseboro said. “I am determined to advocate for the best interest of the network as a whole, as well as, offer operational perspectives unique to HBCU’S Academic Librarianship.”
The KLN maintains library catalogs of its members’ holdings through Pennsylvania Inter-Library Online Technology (PILOT), enables users at each library to simultaneously search a group of shared resources provided by the KLN as well as searches the individual library’s locally subscribed resources.
