<p class="MsoNormal">At OhioNET, we’ve been helping you help the communities you serve since 1977 by connecting libraries and fostering collaboration. To celebrate our 40<sup>th</sup> anniversary, we’re exploring new, more responsive ways to enact those values
and launching our <b><a href="http://www.ohionet.org/community-collaboration-teams">Community Collaboration Teams</a></b>!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Taking an open-ended approach that reaches across the divisions that separate library types, we’re seeking two teams interested in exploring what it means to be part of a professional community in 2017. Each team needs a minimum of two
participants and must represent two different types of OhioNET-member libraries (academic, K-12, public and special). Explore a problem, research a topic, develop a pilot program—you and your team members decide what direction you take. OhioNET provides
$1500 in seed money and personalized support. Together, we can work to make your library dreams come true!<o:p></o:p></p>
