Please excuse the cross-posting. We hope you can join MCLS this Friday, February 19, for our next monthly Virtual Dialogue. This month we’ll be exploring engaging (and re-engaging) non-library-users. The Dialogue will be 11am – 12:30pm Eastern (10-11:30am Central) on Zoom. Part support group, part visioning, the Dialogues are a positive, encouraging, participatory time for you to share and learn from and with other library staff all over Indiana and Michigan. All library staff are welcome! Join the February Virtual Dialogue here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85184838432?pwd=WWkvaVB0UlpEZlJudW53V3RsRnpoQT09 You can view the recordings and chat logs from the previous dialogues anytime at https://www.mcls.org/training-events/presentation-slides/.
