Advocacy Update: Road Ahead Tour Starts in September

OLC Kicks Off The Road Ahead Tour on September 17, 2024

Although the proposed state budget for Fiscal Year 2026-27 won't be officially introduced at the Statehouse until February of 2025, conversations about the budget have already begun.

To prepare library directors for the upcoming state budget deliberations, Jay Smith, OLC's Director of Government and Legal Services, will be hosting meetings around the state during September and October. He will share information about OLC's advocacy efforts and tools for libraries to utilize as we continue to fight for funding at the state level.

All library directors are encouraged to attend the meeting in their Ohio Senate District, or if necessary, participate in a different meeting on the schedule. These meetings are important so libraries can speak with one strong voice at the Statehouse.

Special thanks to the members of the OLC's Legislative Network who helped coordinate the stops on the Road Ahead Tour.

If you have questions, please contact Jay Smith at [email protected] or 614-410-8092 x 103.
