The Library of Michigan is partnering with Connect Michigan to help sponsor the upcoming 2013 Michigan Broadband Conference.
Michigan library staff members are welcome to attend the conference at no charge but you do need to register.  Registration for the conference is open now and more information can be found here: http://www.connectmi.org/broadband-summit<http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTMxMDIyLjI0MzYxNjUxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDEzMTAyMi4yNDM2MTY1MSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MzE2NjczJmVtYWlsaWQ9bm9ycmlzczJAbWljaGlnYW4uZ292JnVzZXJpZD1ub3JyaXNzMkBtaWNoaWdhbi5nb3YmZmw9JmV4dHJhPU11bHRpdmFyaWF0ZUlkPSYmJg==&&&114&&&http://www.connectmi.org/broadband-summit>.  Michigan library staff should use the promo code Libraries4Broadband when registering online.
The conference is an opportunity for libraries, educators, technology providers, local government officials and others to share best practices and collaborate on new ways to expand broadband technology access across Michigan. If you are interested in learning more about the use of broadband and its adoption in communities throughout Michigan, be sure to attend the conference on Thursday, Oct. 24 at the Kellogg Center in East Lansing from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm.
LM is sponsoring two sessions related to libraries and broadband at the conference. Check the program schedule for the chance to learn from Michigan library leaders who are making a difference in their communities with broadband access. Attendees will hear from panelists exploring how broadband enhances their local businesses' bottom lines, as well as what a gigabit connection means to rural libraries in Michigan.
In addition to the breakout sessions, the 2013 event will feature keynote speakers and a Broadband Hero Awards Presentation. Connect Michigan welcomes you to nominate an individual or organization you feel is making a difference locally or statewide to expand broadband technology access, adoption or use for a Broadband Hero Award.
