I believe this only applies to "social gatherings" like allowing people to use your meeting room, Board meetings, and the other things Clare mentions at the bottom of her email.  There is also a link at the bottom of her email that will help clarify the meaning of "social gatherings and organized events."  I don't think this applies to the regular operation of a library, only to special gatherings like those listed.

I am confused by this.  Did she ever publicly announce this?

As an example, theaters (gyms, etc.) can be open, but we can only limit to 10 indoors at a time?

I have 9 staff at a branch, do I have to shut it down?  I am not cutting my staffs hours as they desperately need the money.  There is nothing they can do at home.

But sports and schools can be open (exempt)?

Can I just get some clarification on this.

Hello All:

Please note that my earlier e-mail (see below) indicated that the 10 person limit included people from the same households. This is incorrect, as it SHOULD read “people NOT from the same households.”

Here is a corrected version of  the information:

EO 2020-176 has been amended by EO 2020-181 to again include Regions 6 & 8 (The UP and the upper Mitten) within the restriction of 10 and under attendance for Social Gatherings and Organized Events:


“1. Subsection (d) is added to Section 8 of the Safe Start order (Executive Order 2020- 176), providing: “In Regions 6 and 8, an indoor social gathering or indoor organized event among persons not part of the same household is permitted provided that the gathering or event does not exceed 10 people and complies with https://www.michigan.gov/whitmer/0,9309,7-387-90499_90705-539530--,00.htmlthe social distancing requirement of subsection 6(a)(1) of this order.”

https://www.michigan.gov/whitmer/0,9309,7-387-90499_90705-539530--,00.html<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.michigan.gov%2Fwhitmer%2F0%2C9309%2C7-387-90499_90705-539530--%2C00.html&data=02%7C01%7CMembielaC%40michigan.gov%7C789d5a5a1e4d479d0a5808d85a546743%7Cd5fb7087377742ad966a892ef47225d1%7C0%7C1%7C637358665847393775&sdata=7B8J7%2BYhRbyxvmgXz6IYeyDtSwISqFKeYIVitlwBedc%3D&reserved=0>

Therefore, the entire state – ALL Public Libraries- must limit in-person gatherings of people NOT from the same household for social gatherings and organized events. This includes meetings, programs, Board Meetings, some meeting room activities, etc.

For information on the meaning of “social gathering or organized event” see the FAQ for EO 2020-176 located on the Executive Order page https://www.michigan.gov/coronavirus/0,9753,7-406-98178_98455-538942--,00.html<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.michigan.gov%2Fcoronavirus%2F0%2C9753%2C7-406-98178_98455-538942--%2C00.html&data=02%7C01%7CMembielaC%40michigan.gov%7C789d5a5a1e4d479d0a5808d85a546743%7Cd5fb7087377742ad966a892ef47225d1%7C0%7C1%7C637358665847393775&sdata=AMA6UjDM1SrpebD9Zd7B59MGRFlLEMBgAWYodOqfeHs%3D&reserved=0>

Libraries are encouraged to consult their attorney on any questions concerning compliance with this EO.

I apologize for the inconvenience and my dubious typing skills!

Thanks!
