<h2>Last chance to take advantage of advanced facilitation training for Michigan library staff!<o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>In partnership with the Library of Michigan (with funding provided in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services), MCLS will be offering four more trainings on facilitation presented by
<a href="http://www.wecanworkitoutllc.com/" target="_blank">We Can Work It Out, LLC</a> this fall. The workshops will be on the topics of "Handling Conflict" and "Coming to Agreement," and will be hosted at four libraries across Michigan. These trainings are
open to all staff of Michigan libraries. They will be most fruitful for those who are working on community engagement projects for their library (such as Community Conversations), or who facilitate meetings, group discussions, or events.<o:p></o:p></p>
