An Interesting Threat to Ohio Libraries

AshtabulaGuy writes “In a story by staff writer Mark Todd, the Star Beacon reports that the Board of County Commissioners of Ashtabula County is presently thinking about adjusting the distribution of LLGSF (Libraries & Local Government State Fund) dollars so that the county retains a larger chunk of the money. Local governments as well as local libraries will be affected through the loss of funds. Diana Lewis of The News-Herald also reports on the matter by providing more dollar amount figures for local political subdivisions but leaves libraries out of her discussion.

Ohio has 88 counties which means that when one has a shortfall in funds followed by a “neat idea” for fixing the problem, other counties can follow suit as well if the law permits (or agitate state leadership in Columbus to make the law permit such).”
