<p class="MsoNormal">We invite you to join MCLS staff for the next dialogue and discussion in our weekly series of conversations around the environment we find ourselves working in right now and what opportunities might exist as we move forward. This week we’ll
 be joined by State Librarians Jake Speer and Randy Riley as we discuss and co-create the post-pandemic library world, from re-opening to potential reinvention. Part support group, part visioning, let’s share our thoughts and ideas as we imagine our preferred
 future. Join us today, Friday, April 10 at 11:00 EDT (10:00 am CDT) on Zoom <a href="https://zoom.us/j/172695113" target="_blank" title="https://zoom.us/j/172695113">https://zoom.us/j/172695113</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
