[AKnapp at library.ohio.gov]

Hello everyone,

I hope you're doing well.  I'm pleased to share the latest edition of the State Library Monthly Report, 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 Columbus location and information about recent activities and presentations from the State Library team. You can view the full report here<https://dam.assets.ohio.gov/library.ohio.gov/monthly-reports/April2026MonthlyReport.pdf>.

In other news,  the process for determining the federal budget for Federal Fiscal Year 2027 is already underway. The House Appropriations Committee will be meeting in June to finalize the bill for the Labor, Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies, which includes funding for the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). IMLS funds many projects and grants from the State Library.  There are two Ohio Representatives that serve on the House Appropriations Committee: Dave Joyce<https://joyce.house.gov/contact> and Marcy Kaptur<http://kaptur.house.gov/contact>.

Warmly,
