*I am not 100% housebound, and do, in fact, attend book sales at least 1 branch of the library system monthly

BUT

This policy is shit & I know they had a 100% virtual process in what they would call "During Covid"

And that access should STILL BE AVAILABLE

In library 165, I asked librarians Gail & Kale for a juicy story about the library I could put on the internet. They did not disappoint! You'll never look at your board the same way again.

My big sister was a very proficient reader by the age of six (I was four). I loved being read to & she enjoyed reading aloud. Win-win.
We were lucky enough to live near an excellent library that we looked forward to visiting weekly. #PublicLibraries

My local state house rep is presenting a detrimental library bill today in Missouri. Sigh. I don’t even have a job as an actual job titled librarian yet and I’m already tired.

But we do have enough money to give a $600 million handout to a sports team owned by billionaires. Call the Speaker and House Finance chair and tell them Ohioans deserve better than this!
