A new, shared website has been created to unify Winona and Twin Cities library services, which you can view at lib.smumn.edu. The new website launched Aug. 23 and features:

  • 24/7 chat services
  • SuperSearch, the libraries’ unified search tool
  • Mobile-friendly design
  • Enhanced navigation (site search, user-friendly organization and menus)

To support you during this transition, we plan to:

  1. Keep the Winona library and Twin Cities library websites available until Dec. 20, 2021.
  2. Include links to the Winona library and Twin Cities library websites on the new website’s homepage.
    We hope that the new website raises awareness that you may use both libraries; increases access to the libraries’ collections and staff; and mimics the experience you have face-to-face in the libraries, feeling as though a friendly and knowledgeable librarian is guiding you through the research process.

We value your input and will continuously improve the new website with your feedback. Email us at lib@smumn.edu if you have questions, suggestions, or interest in participating in usability testing.
