<p>Hello, <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm collecting information in advance of a Board of Directors meeting about how Michigan libraries are continuing to pay staff now that the Stay at Home order has been extended, specifically regarding furloughs and layoffs. Most of Farmington Community
Library was placed on furlough on Friday, and we're trying to figure out if other libraries are doing something similar.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If you are willing, please respond to the following questions:<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>Have any staff members been furloughed or laid off since the Stay at Home order (3/24/2020)?<br>
</li><li>Should the Stay at Home order be extended, would furloughs or lay-offs be considered?<br>
</li><li>What (if any) adjustments have been made to your budget since 3/24/2020?<br>
</li><li>What type of library are you (city, district, etc.)?<br>
</li></ol>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you very much for your time and responses!<br>
</div>
