Hi all, Please share, if you can, the insurance company that covers library events held outside your library building. We are looking at an extra charge (=$349) to cover an event held in the parking lot. I'd like to know what the rest of Michigan does. The argument from our current company is that the event is outside the "norm" of a library event and it is entertainment, which is not what libraries "traditionally" do. Thanks!
