Greeting Michigan Libraries, I'm wondering if any of you have hosted programming around the top of misinformation. Specifically I'm looking for a keynote speaker who can get to the UP in Mid-Feb - Early March.

We do have a travel and stipend budget for this program, we just need to find someone willing to join us in person. We are NOT interested in virtual options. If you have suggestions, I'd love to hear them! Andrea [cid:image001.png@01DA117D.83022130] Andrea Ingmire Library Director 217 N.

Greetings, November 16, 2023, 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM: The Open Meetings Act (OMA) Refresher Who can speak during a public meeting? Who sets the agenda? Is a committee under the OMA? The Open Meetings Act is an integral part of a public library's governance, but it is also confusing and full of nuance. This session will provide a refresher on the OMA , and also discuss some amendments that are (hopefully) on the way! For more information or to register, visit the Event Page<https://libraryofmichigan.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/libraryofmichigan/even…> (https://libraryofmichigan.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/libraryofmichigan/even…) December 1, 2023, 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM: Library Fundraising Libraries are always looking for revenue, and many are considering taking fundraising into their own hands. Should you? What are the legal considerations of municipal fundraising? Is Crowdfunding in your future?

The Cat in the Hat performs HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS at YOUR Library this Holiday!
by romeoisojuliet＠aol.com 06 Nov '23

06 Nov '23

Dear Michigan Library Branch, My name is Paul Riopelle. I'm a professional actor who does live Christmas appearances as The Cat in the Hat, performing HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS, as well as two other holiday favorites, FROSTY THE SNOWMAN, and T'WAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS. I was writing to inquire if your branch might have interest in bringing our program in for your patrons and their families this holiday season. This is a fully-memorized and acted-out version of Dr. Seuss' beloved classic, HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS, with lots of audience participation. I teach the audience the "Who Song" to sing near the end of the tale, and even choose a volunteer to play Cindy Lou Who, complete with Who-antennas! In addition to the main tale, the program also includes performances of the Children's favorites FROSTY THE SNOWMAN and 'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS. The visit opens with leading the children in a Christmas sing-a-long, then moves to the three stories, and ends with a final Christmas carol. Candy canes can also be passed out to the children, if desired. The program lasts about 30 minutes, followed by photo-ops with each child and family. Attached you will find a press photo of the program, and you may find a short clip of me performing the first few stanzas of the show at this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1N5ia4Nsfakr2dor0Wp2tZwrl9nKTMiix/view?usp=… Upon reviewing the attached materials, I hope you will have interest in learning more. To my knowledge, there's no other performer out there bringing this Holiday Classic to life in the way I do, so I'd LOVE to bring it to your library branch this Christmas season. Performances are very reasonably priced, with even lower rates available for multiple presentations on a single day. Please feel free to contact me at any time at this email address, or at my cell number, 312-339-9406. I look forward to discussing the possibilities! With warm regards, Paul Riopelle
