</b><br>
All public libraries in MI are members of the Collaborative Summer Library Program, and you are invited to contribute thoughts about future summer themes and slogans. This April, you will have two virtual opportunities to give feedback on a slogan for
<b>2027’s</b> theme (Mystery/Detective/Suspense) and a theme for <b>2028</b>. What type of sleuthing will 2027 bring to our libraries? Will we spend summer of 2028 getting our hands dirty in the garden? Standing under a tree during a rainstorm? Zipping into
the future? You get to help us decide!<br>
<br>
Register for one of our two listening sessions in April by clicking on the links below. We want to hear your voice! Ahead of the meeting, we will be providing the top 25 options for 2027 slogans and 2028 themes. Help us narrow it down to the ten that will be
voted on by State Reps at the annual CSLP meeting (I’m your state rep and would love to hear your feedback)! You can see the
