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 Bride-to-Be takes advantage of a library's picturesque and well-maintained outdoor garden (which has paths for strolling along a picture walk, and a few benches for sitting) to take pictures of themselves in various poses on the grass, (despite the "Keep off the grass" and " Caution, Herbicide Applied Keep Off The Grass" signs ) and develops a severe and unsightly poison ivy rash on their face in the days following the visit, is the library obligated to pay for a make-up session and appropriate cosmetics to mitigate the rash's effect on her Big Day?
