<br>
I hope you're doing well. I’m pleased to share the latest edition of the <b><i>State Library Monthly Report</i></b>, which highlights recent updates, upcoming programs, and resources to support our patrons and community partners. This month’s report includes
continued strong usage across several key services, along with news about the State Library’s new Columbus locations and information about recent activities and presentations from the State Library team. You can view the full report

In federal funding news, the US Senate Appropriations Committee is beginning to hold hearings for the next federal budget. Based on previous budget cycles, we expect the Labor, Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies appropriations bill, which
includes funding for the Institute of Museum and Library Services, to be finalized by the end of July or beginning of August.<br>
<br>
The State Library has a <b>new mailing address</b>: 35 East Chestnut Street, Floor 5, Columbus, OH 43215-2477. As a favor to me, please let your fiscal office know that
<b>all business mail</b> for State Library, including payments for all invoices such as SEO, statewide delivery, and OPLIN webkits should now be
<b>directed to that address</b>.<br>
<br>
Warmly,</span><br>
