<p class="MsoNormal">It’s not quite the holiday weekend yet and we have a great afternoon meeting in store for you today. Please join us if you are interested in learning about hotspot lending or want to share your experiences with hotspot lending. This is
a great opportunity for libraries that are applying for digital inclusion CARES Act grants from LM to learn what they can do with the funding.

<p class="MsoNormal">The <b>New Opportunities in Adult Programming </b>virtual meeting is scheduled for Thursday, July 2 at 2:00 pm Eastern.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This week our topic is hotspot lending. LM currently has CARES Act grants funding available for digital inclusion efforts and that includes obtaining hotspots for lending as one use of the funds. Thursday we will hear about one library’s
hotspot lending program and also look at other hotspot lending best practices from around the country and find materials that you can use to set up your own lending program. We hope this session will give you some ideas for your own hotspot lending program.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do you already lend hotspots? If so, please attend and share your own best practices, plus your own do’s and don’ts with your library colleagues.
<o:p></o:p></p>
