Good afternoon, all!
I hope your week went well and you’re gearing up for a relaxing weekend!
**Proposed Fee Structure Informational Meeting
During Autumn 2022, a working group of representatives from Evergreen Indiana member libraries joined together to develop and propose a restructuring of the membership fees for the consortium. This restructuring was driven by the need to increase revenues to provide the necessary support for the growing consortium. Join us for this informational session to learn more and ask questions.
Monday, January 23rd, 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm (EST)/1:00 pm – 2:00 pm (CST) – Register here
