Michigan Libraries for Life – Thursday, October 10 through Wednesday, October 16
If you could save a life, would you? Most people would say “Yes!” without hesitation. One of the simplest ways to
save and improve lives is by supporting organ, tissue, and eye donation. Since 2010, libraries across Michigan
have participated in a simple and effective campaign to educate patrons about donation and transplantation and
to give them an opportunity to join the Michigan Organ Donor Registry. The campaign is called Michigan Librar-
ies for Life. This statewide campaign, which includes public, academic, special and hospital libraries of all sizes,
has inspired nearly 4,000 people to sign up as donors! Seeking volunteers to staff an information table in the
Library’s Circulation Lobby over these dates. Interested? Please contact Kim Wilcox - [email protected].
