MLA is launching a new and exciting program called Think Space specifically for library directors focused on advancing equity, inclusion, and belonging. Information and registration can be found here: https://www.milibraries.org/think-space The registration fee is inclusive of all hotel stays, sessions, and events. Financial Aid is available to make this event affordable for all. The Library of Michigan Continuing Education Stipend Program<https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/0,9327,7-381-88855_89737-359559--,00.html> can award $900 per applicant and an additional $150 for travel (if travelling greater than 150 miles). The Michigan Library Association scholarship application<https://www.milibraries.org/scholarships> is also available for MLA members with financial need. Please take advantage of these opportunities and don’t miss out on this exciting program. Join the conversation with national and local library leaders this December.
