The MeL Minute is early this week so we can get information out about the MeLCat Users Days. The MeLCat team from the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services is going on the road again to meet up with staff from MeLCat libraries all over Michigan. The free half-day regional sessions will feature review, discussion, and the opportunity to compare notes with staff from other MeLCat libraries. MCLS staff are creative, fun and informative as they review practices and take feedback in a good mixture of hands-on activities and group discussion. These user's days are for library staff only and there are three open locations left this season so register today! * Portage District Library<https://www.google.com/maps/place/Portage+District+Library/@42.203572,-85.5892047,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x88179e3bb492e2cb:0xcc16710353c2ce19!8m2!3d42.203572!4d-85.587016> - Tuesday, July 18, 1 - 4pm * Peter White Public Library<https://www.google.com/maps/place/Peter+White+Public+Library/@46.5450222,-87.3952439,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x4d4e209878c6bb95:0xaaa88aa5447ede0b!8m2!3d46.5450222!4d-87.3930552> - Wednesday, July 26, 9:30am - 12:30pm * Devereaux Memorial Library<https://www.google.com/maps/place/Devereaux+Memorial+Crawford+County+Library/@44.6642213,-84.7096312,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x88201146f8a3c1b5:0x605348a3a2af7db5!8m2!3d44.6642213!4d-84.7074425> - Thursday, July 27, 9:30am - 12:30pm You can register here for these workshops<http://mcls.org/mel/melcat/users-day-2017/>.
