Please use relevant Dublin Core fields for Title, Creator, and other key elements as needed. Story The primary full-text for the entry. The summer of 1896 saw the creation of the Traveling Library System. Modeled after the program of the New York State Library, the collections consisted of twenty-five to thirty books in boxes which were made by residents at the Ohio School for the Deaf. Collections were sent to reading clubs, citizens, boards of education, public libraries, and granges. The objectives were to furnish good literature; strengthen small libraries; and to create an interest in the establishment of new ones. The first collection was sent to a women’s club in Mt. Vernon, Ohio on November 6, 1896. The first school collection was sent to Adelphi. The first grange to receive a traveling library collection was Number 729 in West Jefferson, Ohio. More than three fourths of the collections were sent to rural communities and small villages that had no libraries. Schools and granges were located in remote areas of the state. By 1899 the Traveling Library was even going to North Bass Island in Lake Erie although transportation from Sandusky after November was not dependable due to the weather. Book purchases for the school collections were made from the list recommended by the Board of Control of the Ohio Teachers’ Reading Circle. Agricultural books for the granges were selected on approval of the lecturer of the State Grange. Additional space was soon needed elsewhere for the Traveling Library program. Quarters were rented at 1991/2 East Gay Street, and its former space was now used for the General Library Department. By 1910 there were 1,387 traveling libraries in Ohio, circulating books through women’s clubs, schools, granges, libraries, study clubs, religious organizations, and men’s clubs. Circulation for the collections in the Traveling Library steadily rose throughout the seventy-seven years that the program operated. In 1896 the circulation of the traveling library was 250. By 1930 it had risen to 600,000. Additional space was soon needed elsewhere for the Traveling Library program. Quarters were rented at 199 1/2 East Gay Street, and its former space was now used for the General Library Department.

Please use relevant Dublin Core fields for Title, Creator, and other key elements as needed. Lede A brief introductory section that is intended to entice the reader to read the full entry. Bookmobiles were a staple in communities throughout Ohio for most of the 20th century. Read more about them here! Story The primary full-text for the entry. By 1939, 18 public libraries in Ohio were operating bookmobiles, circulating 1.5 million books and traveling over 171,000 miles. During the war years, both the services and the production of bookmobiles were in decline.Since their beginning in the early 1900s, bookmobiles have been the most notable library outreach service in the United States. Bookmobiles got their start in Ohio in 1923, when the Dayton and Montgomery County Public Library began its service. The State Library of Ohio's outreach focus remained with the <a href="http://slo200.library.ohio.gov/items/show/7">Traveling Libraries program</a> for the first half of the 20th century. However, the passage of the Library Services Act in 1956 gave a boost to the bookmobile programs throughout Ohio. The purpose of the federal funds was to aid in the further development of rural library services and in 1957 the State Library awarded Guernsey County District Library a grant to purchase the first bookmobile under this program. Funds were also awarded to purchase bookmobiles for use in Ashtabula, Holmes, and Ottawa counties. The State Library also used federal funds for two additional bookmobiles to operate from the newly established bookmobile centers to serve rural areas of the state. By 1969, State Library bookmobiles were serving 22 counties. Southeastern Ohio Regional Library Service Center (SEO) served Noble, Washington, Morgan, Perry, Muskingum, Monroe, Belmont, Guernsey and Harrison counties. The Northwest Regional Library Center in Napoleon, served Fulton, Defiance and Henry counties. The Central Ohio Bookmobile in Columbus served Union, Champaign, Madison and Fayette counties. Additional bookmobile units included the Adams-Brown Bookmobile in Winchester, Lawrence County Bookmobile, and the Meigs-Jackson- Vinton Bookmobile. By 1973, 60 public libraries in Ohio were providing bookmobile service. In 1970, the Napoleon center had become a Regional Bookmobile Center and in 1980 moved to Bowling Green, Ohio, to be more centrally located. The center now included Wood County in its service area. In January, 1976, the Lawrence County Bookmobile, and the Meigs-Jackson- Vinton Bookmobile were transferred to the Ohio Valley Area Libraries (OVAL) Area Library Service Organization (ALSO) and were operated from Wellston, Ohio. The Adams-Brown Bookmobile unit began serving Clinton County in 1981 and became the Southwest Bookmobile Center. In 1983 collections from Northwest, Southwest centers and SEO were added to the on-line system. Dial access printer terminals allowed bookmobiles to determine one another’s holdings and enabled state library staff to identify field unit holdings. Also in 1983, new trucks were purchased to serve Fulton, Defiance, Erie, and Wood counties in the northwest, and Adams, Brown, and Clinton counties in the southwest. In 1984 the Central Ohio Bookmobile Center closed. Ohio’s first bookmobile workshop in ten years was held in June, 1985, at Bowling Green State University and brought together librarians to discuss and hear presentations about bookmobile services. The Rural Bookmobile Workshop was the beginning of nine national bookmobile conferences convened by the State Library of Ohio. The attendance grew from 40 to nearly 300 over the next nine conferences. Participants came from 40 states, Canadian provinces and Australia. Quality of service was a topic discussed as was technology, staff training and new concepts in marketing and design. The focus of the third conference was the development of bookmobiles standards and guidelines. By the seventh conference the “National Bookmobiles Guidelines” were reexamined and updated for accuracy, validity and usefulness. The State Library hosted its last conference in 1994. The Southwest Bookmobile Center which had operated for more than 26 years from a converted theater in Winchester, Ohio, moved to St. Martin, Ohio, in 1985. SEO served five counties in 1985 through the bookmobile, and Northwest was serving six counties. A total of 16 counties were served through State Library of Ohio bookmobiles in 1985. In 1986 Northwest added Ottawa County and leased a new building. SEO’s new automated circulation system became operational in September. In 1987 Northwest received a new bookmobile and now served Fulton, Defiance, Paulding, Erie, Ottawa and Wood counties and in 1989, included Van Wert County in its service area. The State Library was serving 17 counties with bookmobiles in 1990 and in 1991 purchased the building it had been leasing for the Southeastern Regional Library Center. By 1993 63 Ohio public libraries were providing bookmobile service. The Dynix circulation system purchased for SEO in 1993, linked the catalogs of 11 libraries and the two bookmobile centers in northwest and southwest. With the increased support of technology, bookmobiles were better able to serve their patrons as they could check availability of materials and reserve them more quickly. However, budget constraints forced the State Library to evaluate its overall services in 1994 and the Northwest Bookmobile Center was closed at the end of year. By 1995 the online catalog and circulation system, Dynix, connected bookmobile collections in Adams, Brown, Clinton, Highland, Harrison, Licking, Monroe, Muskingum, Noble, Perry, and Washington counties. In 2001, 54 public libraries still had bookmobiles and the State Library contracted with seven libraries for the service. However, in 2002 the Southwest Bookmobile Center closed and that same year SEO stopped its bookmobile service and converted its bookmobile to a mobile lab. A 35 foot bookmobile was retrofitted with equipment including networked computers, digital projector and networked printers. A wireless bridge connected the mobile center using the local library’s internet connection. Libraries and state agencies scheduled the lab for several weeks at a time to provide on-site technology training. The lab operated for fourteen years. It was replaced in 2016, with On Demand Technology Training. A trainer with a projector, screen and multiple laptops travels to sites to provide training for library staff patrons, schools, and non-profit organizations.

As Ohio has been called the "cradle of coaches," the State Library of Ohio could be called the training ground for State Librarians. Story The primary full-text for the entry. Ohio as a training ground for State Librarians began as early as 1921, when Mary E. Downey became State Librarian of North Dakota. Downey had been the state library organizer for Ohio in 1908. She left and went to Utah, where she held the same position. She then found her way to the North Dakota State Library. In 1963. Walter T. Brahm left the State Library of Ohio to become the State Librarian of Connecticut. Brahm had been State Librarian of Ohio since 1942 and retired from the Connecticut State Library in 1975. This happened again in 1971, when Edwin Dowlin, head of the newly-created Library Development Division, left to become State Librarian of New Mexico. Paul Agresti, Assistant to the State Librarian of Ohio, moved to the State Library of New Mexico and became acting State Librarian after Dowlin. In 1974, Richard M. Cheski, who had succeeded Dowlin as head of library development, left Ohio to become State Librarian of Colorado. In 1978, Cheski returned to Ohio as State Librarian when Joseph F. Shubert became State Librarian of New York. Patricia Harris, a library development consultant, left the State Library of Ohio for the Louisiana State Library. From there, she moved to North Dakota to become State Librarian in 1985. James W. Fry, Deputy State Librarian for Library Services in Ohio, left in 1984 to become the State Librarian of Michigan. He was replaced by Blane K. Dessey, from the State Library of Oklahoma. Dessey left Ohio in 1986 to become State Librarian of Alabama. He was succeeded there by Patricia Harris, who left North Dakota in 1991. Michael Jaugstetter came to the came to the State Library of Ohio in 1983 to head the LSCA Title II Construction program. Jaugstetter moved to the North Dakota State Library and became State Librarian in 1996. Michael Lucas, though he didn't change states, became State Librarian in 1996 when Richard Cheski retired. He had begun as a reference librarian at the State Library of Ohio in 1978. Jo Budler succeeded Michael Lucas as state librarin in 2004 after Lucas's retirement.

Please use relevant Dublin Core fields for Title, Creator, and other key elements as needed. Story The primary full-text for the entry. On November 2, 1920, KDKA Radio in Pittsburg launched the first radio broadcast in the country, announcing the returns of the Harding-Cox presidential election (which you can listen to <a href="http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2012/03/08/kdkas-historic-broadcast/">here</a>). Soon after, radio purchases exploded; from 1923-1930, approximately 60% of American families purchased radios. Radio broadcasting exploded in this decade, as well, and by the end of the decade programs included westerns, soap operas and other dramas, comedies, broadcasting for children, as well as news reporting. Radios, and radio broadcasting, ushered in a new era where “<a href="http://www.mortaljourney.com/2011/04/1920-trends/radio-history">a custom where families gathered around a glowing box for night-time entertainment took root, forever changing American culture</a> In 1924, Sears, Roebuck and Company of Chicago funded the Little Red Schoolhouse of the Air, with Benjamin “Uncle Ben” Darrow as its schoolmaster. Darrow “foresaw that radio had created the possibility of a global village” (Bianchi, 2008). “The central and dominant aim of education by radio,” he <a href="http://www.ohiohistorycentral.org/w/Radio">said</a>, “is to bring the world to the classroom, to make universally available the services of the finest teachers, the inspiration of the greatest leaders and unfolding events which through the radio may come as a vibrant and challenging textbook of the air.” With the experience he gained in Chicago, Darrow traveled to Ohio in 1928 and made contact with the Ohio Department of Education. The following year, on January 7, 1929, the Ohio School of the Air was founded. By November of that year, at the first Ohio School of the Air conference, Darrow predicted that, with the help of educational broadcasting, “the minds of boys and girls will be dipped directly into the flame of living genius with its correspondingly greater inspirational and ambition-arousing possibilities” (Darrow, 1929). The Ohio School of the Air continued for eight years, attracting teaching talent from around the state of Ohio. Lessons focused on the social sciences (history, government, geography), on the arts, on current events…nearly all of the subjects we see today, with the exception of math, were represented. In a survey conducted during the 1933-1934 school year and sent to 475 schools, 182 schools of the 270 surveys returned reported using Ohio School of the Air lessons, or 38% of schools and 67% of respondents. Unfortunately, the Ohio Department of Education ceased funding of the School of the Air in 1937, ending its run. This collection contains materials from the Ohio School of the Air, which continued to educate Ohio’s students until a lack of funding caused its demise in 1936. Former State Librarian Paul A.T. Noon contributed lessons to the school, primarily on literature, and in this collection you can view transcripts for those lessons, complete with his notes and edits. You can also view the proceedings from the first Ohio School of the Air conference, as well as the annual report from the 1933-1934 school year and the final annual report from 1935-1936.
