Staff have begun a timeline to review grant programs over the next year. The Choose to Read Ohio grants are the first to be evaluated. The CTRO program is moving forward with the 2013 and 2014 booklist, The 2013 and 2014 titles are listed here: <span style='color:red'><a href="http://library.ohio.gov/blog/?p=2751">http://library.ohio.gov/blog/?p=2751</a></span>. For the LSTA CTRO grants, funding for the 2011 and 2012 titles is no longer available; the next round of grants would have been for the 2013 and 2014 titles. State Library staff believe that the shift to the new title list is a logical time to suspend the CTRO grants while the process is reviewed and the impact of the grants is evaluated. We hope you will continue to use the CTRO titles and toolkits in your programming. Toolkits for the 2013 and 2014 titles will be completed and posted in fall 2012. Questions regarding LSTA should be addressed to Missy Lodge at <a href="mailto:mlodge@library.ohio.gov">mlodge@library.ohio.gov</a>. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#17365D'><img border=0 width=125 height=71 id="_x0000_i1025" src="cid:image001.jpg@01CD73EB.70EFB980" alt="Description: cid:image001.jpg@01CC60D3.E1B03810"></span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'>Marsha McDevitt-Stredney<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'>Marketing & Communications Director<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'>274 E. 1<sup>st</sup> Avenue<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'>Columbus, OH 43201<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'>Tel: 614-644-6875<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'>Fax: 614-466-3584<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'><a href="http://www.library.ohio.gov/">www.library.ohio.gov</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><a href="http://www.facebook.com/people/StateLibraryof-Ohio/100000063363765" target="_blank"><b><i><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=45 height=45 id="Picture_x0020_13" src="cid:image010.png@01CD73EB.7108E6D0" alt="Description: Description: Facebook logo - links to the State LIbrary of Ohio's facebook page"></span></i></b></a><b><i><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> </span></i></b><a href="http://twitter.com/statelibohio" target="_blank"><b><i><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=45 height=45 id="Picture_x0020_48" src="cid:image011.png@01CD73EB.7108E6D0" alt="Description: Description: Twitter logo - links to the State Library of Ohio's Twitter page"></span></i></b></a><b><i><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> </span></i></b><a href="http://library.ohio.gov/blog/" target="_blank"><b><i><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=44 height=44 id="Picture_x0020_25" src="cid:image012.jpg@01CD73EB.7108E6D0" alt="Description: Description: Blog logo - Links to the State Library of Ohio's blog"></span></i></b></a><b><i><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> </span></i></b><b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> </span></b><a href="http://pinterest.com/stlibohio/"><b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:windowtext;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=46 height=46 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image013.png@01CD73EB.7108E6D0"></span></b></a><b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><br><br></span></b><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'>Share Your Story</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:#002E62'> at <b><a href="http://library.ohio.gov/state-librarian/share-your-story"><span style='color:#002E62'>http://library.ohio.gov/state-librarian/share-your-story</span></a></b><br>Tell us how a State Library service or resource helped you or your library.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
