As was the case last year, there are three brochures, in pdf format: http://tln.lib.mi.us/map/Files/MAP-LowerMitten-Brochure.pdf for the southern Lower Peninsula http://tln.lib.mi.us/map/Files/MAP-UpperMitten-Brochure.pdf for the northern Lower Peninsula http://tln.lib.mi.us/map/Files/MAP-UpperPeninsula-Brochure.pdf for the Upper Peninsula The brochures and all MAP related promotional material can be found at this link: http://tln.lib.mi.us/map/ NEW to this year's brochures is the inclusion of a designation symbol next to the name of those destinations whose facilities are accessible. Brigette designed the brochures so as to optimize them for printing by libraries. That said, if you wish to re-work the brochures to your liking I have attached Word versions of all three. Thank you for your work on the brochures, Brigette. And to libraries, thank you for your support and promotion of the Michigan Activity Pass program.
