Virtual Event Pollinator’s Gardens with Bees in the D
by Michael Howey 02 May '20

02 May '20

Greetings! If you are going to do, or would like to add to, your virtual programming please consider Bees in the D. Royal Oak Public Library hosted Bees in the D Pollinator’s Gardens this week and it was very entertaining, informative and much fun! The interest was high, over 100 registered with 67 watching, and the presenter Brian Peterson-Roest was great! We used Zoom, which Bees in the D provided. The event went smooth, with no glitches! I think your patrons would enjoy Pollinator’s Gardens and with Bees in the D being a non-profit, their fee ($300) goes to supporting their great cause. Tap https://beesinthed.com/ to learn more and get in contact with Brian. Please email me if you have any questions!

Michlib-l Best Practices Guidelines
by Norris, Sonya (MDE) 01 May '20

01 May '20

Greetings Michigan Library Community, This is a best practices update for posting to Michlib-l. We welcome your participation on Michlib-l. There are a few guidelines that help improve the experience for everyone: 1. If you ask for group input on a topic, offer to collect the responses and then re-post them to the list so everyone can benefit. Be sure to embed those responses in the body of your message. 2. Please keep in mind when composing your messages that attachments are removed from posts for digest subscribers and in the archives. For maximum reach, embed the text you wish readers to see in the body of your message. If an attachment is especially important for its images, formatting or other reasons, upload it to your website and then link to it in your message to Michlib-l. 3. Do not post replies that are meant for one person to the entire list. You can accomplish this by using the "Reply" feature and not "Reply All." And, of course, a little patience goes a long way. We've all accidentally posted something to a list that was only meant for one person so gentleness with each other is helpful as well. Have a fabulous day in Library Land, Sonya Sonya Schryer Norris Library Consultant Library of Michigan Michigan Department of Education 517-335-1498 Norriss2(a)michigan.gov<mailto:Norriss2@michigan.gov> https://michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan https://mel.org<https://mel.org/> http://michlibrary.org<http://michlibrary.org/> You have the power to shape your future, and the future of all children, by counting everyone in your home in the 2020 Census<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmy2020cen…>.
