This week we’re highlighting Logan County Libraries as they celebrate 125 years of serving their community.

On May 6, 2026, community members gathered at the Knowlton Library to commemorate the milestone with a special celebration and the burial of a time capsule filled with items representing life and library service in 2026.

Congratulations to Logan County Libraries on 125 years of learning, connection, and community impact!

Thank you to everyone who attended our recent member meeting! We appreciate all of the participation, thoughtful conversations, and engagement throughout the event.

It was great to share updates, discuss upcoming plans, and connect with so many of our members in one space. Your feedback and involvement continue to play an important role in everything we do, and we’re grateful for the time and energy everyone brought to the meeting.

We’re looking forward to everything ahead and can’t wait to see you all at the next one!

We had a fantastic day in Findlay, Ohio attending an engaging, inspiring, and informative Adult Literacy Workshop! 📚✨

This meaningful event was a collaboration between the Findlay-Hancock County Public Library, the State Library of Ohio, and NORWELD.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to learn, connect, and bring back new ideas to support literacy in our communities.
