the "Media Services" reform provisions in the final adopted version of
the Biennial Budget Bill, HB1 and ensure that all Ohio students benefit
from the services of a licensed Library Media Specialist/School
Librarian."

 

The second resolution expresses continuing support for Ohio's Public
Libraries.

Board, providing services and support to all types of libraries in the
