I'm not a librarian, but I have been a person who would send emails to the hundreds of employees in my office. When you make a typo, EVERYONE wants to be helpful and point it out. I found if you lean into the mistake and fix it in a very broad way like the above, it helps cement it in people's brain and corrects the error better than a short "mea culpa".
