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.

As the second State Librarian, John McElvain also recorded books in the accession register as they were purchased by the Governor. The seventeenth General Assembly (1818 – 1819) authorized Governor Ethan Allen Brown to purchase copies of Binns’ edition of the Declaration of Independence, extended library privileges to judges of courts of common pleas starting in 1818, and appropriated $1,000 to purchase books in 1819. McElvain held a number of political positions during his lifetime. He served two non-consecutive terms as Franklin County Sheriff, the first one during his position as State Librarian. McElvain served as an Indian agent for many years under the Administration of President Andrew Jackson. In this role, and as outlined in the 1830 Indian Removal Act, McElvain assisted with negotiations to move Ohio Native American tribes out of the state. The Seneca, Delaware, and Ottawa tribes moved across the Mississippi River in 1832 and 1837. The Wyandots refused to move West but they eventually reached an agreement and ceded their lands in 1842. After leaving his position, McElvain served two non-consecutive terms as the Director of the Ohio Penitentiary.

Based on Curatescape Story item type. Please use relevant Dublin Core fields for Title, Creator, and other key elements as needed. Story The primary full-text for the entry. After David S. Broderick died, Zechariah Mills was appointed State Librarian by a joint convention of the two branches of the Legislature. A law was enacted during this session changing the term of State Librarian to three years with an annual salary of $200. An appropriation of $350 a year for four years was established for the purchase of books. Mills brought stability to the library by serving for close to eighteen years. From January 1838 to June 1844, he diligently logged the temperature and weather conditions in Columbus. Every day, morning, noon, and night, he entered his observations into his ledger. Occasionally, he would include events of interest to him. On August 11, 1842, he declared the weather in Columbus to be “variable…but very pleasant,” with a daytime high of 82°, a low of 57°, and with a bit of fog in the morning. He also recorded the first stone for the foundation of the new State House. The library was becoming very cramped as the number of volumes grew from 1,717 in 1824 to 7,564 in 1841. As a result, the Legislature authorized the State Librarian to enlarge the library by adjoining it to another room.

On February 9, 1842, Thomas Kennedy was appointed by an election in the joint convention of the two branches of the Legislature. He received 53 votes and Zachariah Mills received 50. Kennedy continued the work of Zachariah Mills in recording the daily weather. A significant change took place in 1844 when a law was passed to create a Board of Commissioners with the power to adopt rules and regulations, and to control all expenditures. The Commissioners, which included the Governor, the Secretary of State, and the State Librarian, were charged with managing the sale of Supreme Court reports and other extra copies of documents and authorized to use the proceeds to increase preservation in the library. The Commission was also authorized to exchange laws, journals, documents, and reports with other legislative bodies, states, and libraries. Although Kennedy was on the ballot for a second term, he lost by 21 votes to the sixth State Librarian, John Greiner. Later, Kennedy worked as Assistant Librarian for 165 days during the tenure of Elijah Hayward. It was the first time an Assistant Librarian was paid by the Legislature.
