Since its launch, over 530 library staff from 80 counties throughout Ohio have registered for exclusive access to this original, self-paced, collection analysis initiative. Throughout 2022, library staff have explored resources, attended webinars<https://library.ohio.gov/services-for-libraries/library-programs-development/ohio-collection-analysis-initiative/#RecordedWebinarsandWorkshops> and open office hours<https://library.ohio.gov/services-for-libraries/library-programs-development/ohio-collection-analysis-initiative/#OfficeHours>, and used tools to consider collections that empower children and young adult readers by respecting and appreciating what makes them different and the same. The initiative is ongoing—register for access at any time, start when you are ready, and work at your own pace.
