  • A Well-Stocked Cupboard
    A Well-Stocked Cupboard Sometimes in sports, terms like “rebuilding year” or “restocking the cupboard” apply. But that will not be a problem for the 2015 edition of the Towson women’s soccer team. A year removed from the team’s first-ever trip to the Colonial Ath- letic Association (CAA) postseason, the standard of excellence has been raised. Despite seeing five student-athletes exhaust their eligibility and a dozen new faces added to the roster, Tow- son is poised to return to the CAA Tournament and advance. Of the 21 Kelsey Ritter (L) and Nat Pinkney (R) Tigers that saw time in Towson’s CAA First Round game against Hofstra, 16 return to the team this season, bringing the knowledge needed to navigate the grinding CAA regular season and beyond. Experience will not be lacking on the Towson side this season, with 16 returning players combin- ing for over 200 appearances in 2014, including eight seeing time in all 19 games. One of the biggest changes for Towson, which went 6-9-4 overall last season, will be in its goal- keeper spot. The Tigers saw Erin Quinn graduate, but that particular shelf of the cupboard is not bare as Taylor Sebolao returns for her junior campaign. The third-year Tiger saw time in three games last year while backing up Quinn, whose eight shutouts are tied for second-most in a sin- gle season at Towson. “The battle started last year,” said head coach Greg Paynter, who kicks off his ninth season with Towson. “We’ve known Erin was going to graduate and finish her playing career so we were pre- pared for that.” Sebolao will have competition between the pipes as sophomore Emma Burnett, junior transfer Deanna Ballard and rookie Megan Collins will push the top returner every day.

  • Value for Money: Southwestern Ohio's Return from Investment In
    ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF PUBLIC LIBRARIES Value For Money: Southwestern Ohio’s Return from Investment in Public Libraries June 22, 2006 Prepared by Levin, Driscoll & Fleeter 60 East Broad Street Suite 350 Columbus, Ohio 43215 ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF PUBLIC LIBRARIES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A cliché of policy analysis warns that in the search for solutions to problems “the devil is in the details.” The study of public library benefits reveals an opposite rule. There, the angels are in the details because broad measures of activity fail to capture many contributions to economic value and to the quality of life in the communities served by them. Public libraries provide many benefits to their communities. Reference to prices of comparable goods or services and to economic multiplier effects enable an estimate of the quantified value of these benefits. Where no method exists to quantify the value of public library services, narrative descriptions of library activities document the many ways in which the libraries add value to their communities. Quantified Value The nine public libraries in Butler, Clermont, Hamilton, and Warren Counties circulated over 22 million in items in 2005, including over 12.7 million books and periodicals. About 1.5 million people reside in the four counties of Southwest Ohio, and the public libraries there registered over 840,000 library cardholders. Almost 7 million patron visits occurred at the public libraries in these counties during 2005. In addition to these in-person visits, library patrons made over 1.2 million “virtual” library visits to electronic databases maintained by the public libraries in Southwest Ohio.
