You are invited to celebrate 20 years of MeLCat!

MeLCat is 20! To mark this amazing anniversary, we invite you to join us in person or online to celebrate. 

At the MLA conference reception, registered conference attendees can find MeL team staff from the Library of Michigan and MCLS in the Lake Erie Room on the 2nd floor. Stop by to say hello, win prizes, record your MeLCat stories, and take a selfie with a life-sized “Mittens,” the MeLCat Mascot. You can also taste “Mitten’s Harvest Potion,” the MeLCat signature cocktail/mocktail, brought to us by American Fifth Distillery, and pair it with a MeLCat cookie. The MLA conference reception will take place at the Library of Michigan on Thursday, Oct. 30, from 6-9 p.m. Eastern. 

For those unable to attend MLA, there will also be a virtual event in November. Join us to share MeLCat stories, follow the travels of Mittens throughout the state, and spin the virtual wheel for MeLCat prizes. Stay tuned for more details on the virtual celebration. 

The MeL project was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services through the Library of Michigan.
