Thank You For Supporting The Library Levy!
Issue 7 (the Library Levy) passed! This would not have been possible without the support of the voters of Hamilton County and the hard work of the volunteers who shared information about the importance of this issue with the voters.
Thanks to the support of the people in Hamilton County, the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County now will be able to keep library branches open, present programs to encourage life-long learning in our community, and continue to offer a wide range of services to children, seniors and families.
Thank you to the voters of Hamilton County for supporting Issue 7 and saving our public libraries!
The Friends of the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping the Library make information and knowledge accessible to the communities it serves. The Friends purchases special library materials and equipment, and sponsors numerous programs throughout the year. Funds are generated by memberships, book and shop sales, and gifts and grants. Fifty Years of Friends, by Bob Vitz, “documents the journey of a fledgling organization that started in 1957 and has evolved into a dedicated group of civic-minded individuals determined to make a difference in the community on behalf of the Library that they cherish and love.”
