Voters Approve Library Referenda
in Ohio and Virginia
In other library bond measures across the nation, some good news came from Ohio, where, even as other high-profile tax issues were defeated, library measures were approved in Painesville, Middlefield, Cleveland Heights–University Heights, Shaker Heights, Twinsburg, and Perry, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reported November 7. And in Loudoun County, Virginia, where county government projects are frequently rejected, voters approved $46.4 million to expand a library and build a recreational center, according to the November 7 Washington Post.
For information on these and other measures, see the full referenda roundup, which will appear in the special reports section of American Libraries Online and in the January 2002 American Libraries. The online report will be updated as new results are received.
