<div style="margin-top:5pt;margin-bottom:5pt;">Hi Deb and Eunice,</div>
<div style="margin-top:5pt;margin-bottom:5pt;">I hope you’re drying out over there! I saw some of the images around Lansing yesterday and I couldn’t believe it.
</div>
<div>I wanted to send several webinar training dates for Business Collection and Research In Context that I pulled from our training calendar…

<div> </div>
<div>These webinars are open to all states/all libraries, so they won’t be MeL specific webinars, but they are great training opportunities for anyone that wants to attend.
</div>
<div>Of course we’ll also continue to schedule Dinah for the MeL webinars on these topics as well throughout the fall. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
