Hi all, Just in case you were not up at 6am this morning, here is a link to the WDIV Channel 4 news piece about Libraries and virtual schooling. I spoke for about 15-20 minutes and it was whittled down to about two minutes, but I still think they kept the message strong and I'm pleased with the result. https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/local/2020/09/28/metro-detroit-libraries...
