MySQL DB driver for clojure korma

In the documentation for the korma database library for clojure, it says this:

;;You'll also need the JDBC driver for your database. These are easy to find if ;;you search for "my-db jdbc driver maven". Here's an example for postgres: [postgresql "9.0-801.jdbc4"]

Maybe I'm just not getting how to read pages about Maven (I have no Java experience), but what is the JDBC driver for mysql?

The maven "coordinates" for the mysql drivers are: 

 <groupId>mysql</groupId>
 <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
 <version>5.1.6</version>

Which translated to lein are: 

[mysql/mysql-connector-java "5.1.6"]

As you've surmised, Korma/Closure uses Java JDBC, and JDBC requires a different JDBC driver for each underlying database.

The JDBC driver for MySQL can be downloaded here:
