We had such a wonderfully collaborative conversation with small and rural Indiana and Michigan library staff in January, we wanted to keep the conversations going with a POP-UP Virtual Dialogue! We invite small and rural library staff to join us again on Wednesday, February 21 from 10:30 a.m. to noon Eastern (9:30-11:00 a.m. Central) as we dialogue around how we engage with and reach people in our communities. We all have a core contingent that use our libraries in various ways, but how do we go beyond our current patrons and supporters to reach others? MCLS Virtual Dialogues are not courses or webinars, but rather guided conversations with fellow library workers of different experience levels from all over Indiana and Michigan. They are a time to share your experiences and learn from each other. We hope to connect you with others who might be facing similar situations and can relate to your struggles and joys. We invite any staff member, of any role, in any small and rural library in Indiana or Michigan to join us on Zoom! Register today at 2024 MCLS Virtual Dialogue POP-UP Registration<https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUvfuGpqz0uGdE76LqNjYH38b8rRpx0OsAj#/registration>. Our Virtual Dialogues are designed to be as engaging and interactive as an in-person conversation. Participants should plan to have a microphone enabled and cameras on to participate. If you have any questions, please email us at engagement@mcls.org<mailto:engagement@mcls.org>. We look forward to connecting with you!
