The Library of Michigan is a member of the Connecting Michigan Taskforce and hopes that libraries of all types across the state will take part in learning more about how to support improved broadband opportunities in their own communities. This listening tour is a good time to bring together other stakeholders in your community with similar interests in broadband. Feel free to send along the information to others and encourage them to join as well.  We hope as anchor institutions in your community this will also be a good time for you to hear about what efforts are underway and also allow you to provide feedback to this taskforce.
