In this note, we introduce and study a new kind of generalized Cesàro operator, \(\cal{C}_{\mu}\), induced by a positive Borel measure μ on [0, 1) between Dirichlet-type spaces. We characterize the measures μ for which \(\cal{C}_{\mu}\) is bounded (compact) from one Dirichlet-type space, \(\cal{D}_{\alpha}\), into another one, \(\cal{D}_{\beta}\).
