[Michlib-l] Upcoming Event at BPL- Man's Best Friend: Dogs in the Ancient World

This sounds really interesting.
Is it possible to somehow work as a group to book a series of these virtual
events over the course of a year? Each library might take a turn to host,
set the Zoom, police the event, pay any presenter fees, etc., but make the
link and the info available to all to promote to their communities? Or is
that just not workable?
I'd have loved to add this one to our calendar-- but I have to do so at
least three months in advance of the event😕.
