<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Join the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services on <b>Thursday, September 14, from 10:30 a.m. to noon Eastern (9:30-11 a.m. Central)</b> as we continue discussing components of a growth mindset. We will talk about

how to determine and frame success, and how to celebrate once we’ve achieved that success. Whether you’ve attended multiple Virtual Dialogues or if this would be your first, we invite you to be part of the conversation.

<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">MCLS Virtual Dialogues aren’t your traditional webinar or online workshop experience. Instead, the MCLS team facilitates an

<b>engaging and supportive space </b>where library workers from different experience levels and library types discuss the topic through guided questions. The questions are created to encourage participants to think about how they can

build on their strengths and find new ways of thinking about issues. We believe the answers are in the room, and we find that participants walk away feeling connected, inspired, and rejuvenated.

<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">If you’d like to join us, register <b>for free</b> today on our website at
