Hello!
Are you a Michigan library director, board member, or friends group member? Have you ever faced questions involving the law and how it relates to Michigan libraries? Questions like:
If a library has an outdoor reading event with a famous author (who insisted on a “nor pictures or recording “ requirement for the event) and a drone launched by a nearby resident captures video of the event and the resident then publishes
the video online, is this a problem? What if the resident with the drone was a member of the library friends’ group and a library volunteer? Can the author sue the library? The resident?
If so, please join me TODAY, Thursday, August 20 @ 3:00pm for the Library Law Office Hours!
You can register at https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYqdO6uqD8pEt31yRiFFRZkHDc96mWbdidT

Hope to “see” you there!
