[Michlib-l] Preparing Library Staff for ACA - new resources

[White, Shannon (MDE)]

If you are looking for information for you or other library staff to get up to speed on healthcare reform and the Affordable Care Act, please take a look at the NEW attached document.  I'll post this to our ACA page on the Library of Michigan website in the next couple of days but in the meantime, feel free to take a look at the useful links to training, ideas on how to prepare for questions, and quick links to answers.

(Thanks for Lissa Staley from the Topeka Shawnee County Public Library for the original document and the Michigan Library Cooperative Directors for passing this along.)
