The Detroit Area Library NETwork (DALNET) is a multi-type library consortium located on the campus of Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, USA. The consortium, incorporated in 1985, is open to academic, public, school and special libraries as well as information organizations located in any of the seven Southeast Michigan, Metropolitan Detroit counties, including Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, St. Clair, Monroe, Livingston and Washtenaw counties.

To make a regional information gateway possible, consortium members agree to share in projects that include the DALNET Im@gine Gatewayof online library systems, resource sharing services and cooperations, and other digital information projects. The consortium also hosts the healthcallendar.org project, a website calendar listing health-related, group events to citizens in the region. Other projects of the group are listed on the DALNET website's Digital Projects web page.
