Reminder: MY Link Library Card Campaign and Amnesty Program

Hello,

This is just a reminder that the MY Link Library Card campaign starts tomorrow. The new amnesty program also begins tomorrow and will run until September 27th.

Here is the link to the Amnesty Program FAQ: https://hplnet.hpl.lib.tx.us/images/staff-amnesty-faq.pdf

All staff should review it before tomorrow and refer to it as needed during the program.

Finally, please read below for information clarifying "red shirt week."

From Michele Gorman:

Hi everyone.

I’ve had a few questions about “red shirt week”, which starts this coming Wednesday (September 10^th) and runs through next Wednesday (September 17^th).  To clarify – you can wear your red HPL collared shirt, any red shirt, or any white shirt that week, along with your new library card campaign button all staff will receive at their locations soon.

This coming Wednesday and the following Saturday are the big kick-off days, so it might be nice to wear your red HPL shirt on those days, but I’ll leave that up to you.  What really matters is that this is a week for us to unite as a staff, all in our HPL colors, as we kick-off a very exciting library card campaign with the 2-week amnesty program!  And in case you were wondering, this is the first time HPL has offered an amnesty program to people of all ages in decades, so this is a big deal and we want all our customers to know it!

Thanks, and as always let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Michele
