Hi Amber:

 

If you want, you can use Zoom and people can call into it on their phones. If this is a platform you are comfortable with, it may be an easy solution. Many other common platforms such as WebEx also let you call in via phone instead of computer.

 

If you don’t have a videoconference platform that you use,  I have a list of teleconference companies on the remote public meetings sheet we posted at the LM Coronavirus site:

Take Care!

Subject: [Michlib-l] Best phone-in conference call company

 

I've got a board meeting coming up, and a board member who can't do technology. What's the easiest conference call company I can go with that'll let a board member (or member of the public) phone in?

 

Thanks!
