Other Ohio areas can get information about contacting their local elected officials from the Ohio Library Council

My guess is I’ll be hearing a lot more about this at our next Friends Board of Trustees meeting, and possibly at a Legislative breakfast, if I get to go, next week.

By the way, the Columbus Library now gives you the opportunity to borrow eBooks as well. I’ll be checking out that option soon, I’m sure!
