[Michlib-l] Sample Policy language resource!

[Membiela, Clare (MDE)]

Hello:

The Colorado Library Consortium (CLiC)  introduced a nifty resource for sample library policies.

Aimed at small and rural libraries, it is free to use and contains lots of useful language and ideas.

Please note, however that some policies may rely on Colorado Law, (which may differ from Michigan's law),
So, as always, be sure to double check policy language with your attorney to ensure it complies with Michigan and local law - and that it is the best option for your community.


Established to provide small, rural libraries with EASY access to a clearinghouse of policies...
