If you’re in Columbus, check the Columbus library’s page:

http://www.columbuslibrary.org/new/llgsf.cfm

Other Ohio areas can get information about contacting their local elected officials from the Ohio Library Council

My guess is I’ll be hearing a lot more about this at our next Friends Board of Trustees meeting, and possibly at a Legislative breakfast, if I get to go, next week.

By the way, the Columbus Library now gives you the opportunity to borrow eBooks as well. I’ll be checking out that option soon, I’m sure!

As I was going through the handful of photos I took at the park, I started to think about online social networking, and how location does affect how you network.
