Twinsburg Library is #1 again!

The latest Hennen Report has rated the Twinsburg Public Library as #1 in its population category with a composite score of 962 based on input and output measures of 2007 library statistics. After a quick look at the top 100 list, I believe TPL had the highest rating of any library in any category.

I take special pride in this accomplishment, because 2007 was my last full year as director of the Twinsburg Library. I retired at the end of May 2008.

In spite of the fact that funding woes have hit Ohio as well as other states, Twinsburg managed to pass a new operating levy in 2008. It won't offset all the state cuts or the loss of its biggest taxpayer (Chrysler), but the levy should help maintain services and hours for a while.
