What you can do

So what can you do to save your library?

Ohio Library Council has some great suggestions on its website. You don't even have to live in Ohio to do some of these things.

I'm going to lift directly from OLC's site for the following. Hope they don't mind!

Contact your legislators! Let your state legislators and the governor know what your library means to you! Locate your State Representative or State Senator.

Governor Ted Strickland

Post a message on Governor Strickland's Facebook page.
