Animal Law News
Vol. 1 Issue 1 Spring 2016 Published by the Ohio State Bar Association Animal Law Committee Animal Law News An elephant’s journey: How the laws and regulations affecting zoos have evolved leading to the modern zoo If we look back 60 years, which is the average lifespan of an African Elephant, we can witness the significant changes which have occurred in the approach to animal welfare at zoos. There are numerous regulations with which zoos must comply; however, more importantly, rigorous industry accreditation standards have been birthed, driving many zoos in a “race to the top” for excellence in animal care. Our country’s first approach to regulating zoos focused on the control of disease. From the late 1800s to the early 1900s, the Animal Quarantine Laws1 and the Lacey Act2 empowered the president and the Department of the Interior, respectively, to regulate the importation of animals that would threaten domestic animals or humans from disease or other harmful effects.

Director's Report
DIRECTOR’S REPORT February 18, 2010 Monthly Statistics Circulation for the month of January was 546,239. This is an increase of 2% from last year’s January circulation of 536,332. These are again impressive numbers considering the fact that we were open to the public on four Sundays in January last year. The majority of the increase in circulation was due to the strong circulation numbers from the Ohio Library for the Blind and Physically Disabled. Attendance for the month of January was 305,164. This is a decrease of 2% from last year’s January attendance of 312,582. A closer look at the attendance discovers that the average daily walk in count at the Main library was up, while the branches saw a decline in visits by patrons. Program and Outreach Highlights The Martin Luther King Jr. Commemorative Celebration marked my one year anniversary at CPL and also attracted over 600 people to our annual event. Financially supported by Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., the program was moderated by 25th District State Senator Nina Turner. The Senator led a notable list of participants that included Judge Michael Ryan; Councilman Jeff Johnson; CEO and Founder of the Dream Institute, Rachel D. Wilson; Executive Director of the Metropolitan Cleveland Consortium for STEM, Sonya Pryor Jones; The Word Church Pastor, R.A. Vernon; and Chairman of International Relations for the Young Democrats, Thione Naing. The program featured a new format that debuted CPL’s new concept of being “Cleveland’s living room.” The speakers were arranged in a living room setting and answered questions in a more relaxed and informal setting. -
