MULTICOUtTTY INTERLIBRARY 10; SUMMARY OF OHIO LIBRARY -at ATr3ilt INTRODUCTION The Ohio Directcry of Libraries is compiled chiefly from informationsupplied by public, academic, elementary and second:try school, special, and institution 1ibrarids in Ohio throughquestionnaires sent by The State Library of Ohio. Arrangement of information is generally self- explanatory, footnotes have been used as needed. A dot leader (...) or an N/R in a data column indicates a non-response. Public Library directory listings are based on information from the publiclibrary annual report sent by the State Library to the 250 public libraries on January 3, 1975. All 250 responded.The eight-page form, winch collected information on personnel, services, resources and expenditures for calendaryear 1974, was developed as.part of State Library cooperation with the National Center for Education Statistics(NCES) in the Library General Information Survey (LIBGIS) The Ohio Public Library Report formwas redesigned in November, 1974 to obtain inrmation for both-Ohio and for LIBGIS. Libraries are listed by the name of the city in which the main library is located.Branch libraries open fifteen hours or more per week are listed under the main library. Names and titles of assistant librarians,coordinators, and department heads with system wide responsibilities are included for those librarieswhich have a staff of 30 or more persons. Statistics furnished on the annual report forms were checked at the State Libituy andforwarded to the State Data Center for computer calculation. Copies of the completed forms from the librariesin the LIBGIS sample were male, pre-edited for LIBGIS, and sent to NCES May 1, 1975. Questionnaireswere also sent December 27, 1974 to the 88 county auditors' offices to collect data on the distribution of intangibles tax funds. The information fromthese questionnaires was compared with the reports received from the public libraries. Area Library Service Organization (ALSO) statistics were taken from the annualreport submitted by the ALSO January 3, 1975 and from the public library report forms filed by the twelvelibraries which are members of the ALSO. These data are for the calendaryear 1974. Academic Library directory information was gathered by questionnaires sent to 119post secondary educational institution libraries by The State Library January 15, 1975. Of these, 98 responded.

Statistics (for school year 1973-74) on secondary school librarymedia centers were collected by the Ohio State Department of Education's Secondary Principals' Annual Opening Reportwhich was sent to 4,737 secondary schools in September, 1974. These statistics were compiled by the Departmentof Education's Division of Computer Services and Statistical Reports and forwarded to the State Data Center, March1, 1975, for print-out.

    Citywide Conditions Chapter 4 — Citywide Conditions 29 Th e reality that became Map 9 Youngstown after the 1951 & 1974 plans only slightly resembles the intentions of the planners. Th e current land use (see Map 9) shows prescribed uses peppered with widespread non- conforming uses. It demonstrates far too much commercial, industrial and residential use for a city of 82,000. Th e current land use shows the need to plan for the new reality of a smaller city. 30 Chapter 4 — Citywide Conditions Population Th e City of Youngstown has experienced an average of 16% population decline every ten years for the past 40 years and has lost over half its total population. It is anticipated that this trend will slow and the population will stabilize. Race White Black Other Th e racial make up the City has changed over time as well. Twenty years ago 64% of the population was white and by 2000, it was just over 50%. Th e city had become racially balanced. Age Th e majority of the population of the city in 2000 was between 20 and 54 years old. An important factor to consider is that of the 25.3 % of the population over the age of 55 years old, 17.4 % were over the age of 65.

    22nd Annual Voices of Giving Awards Ceremony August 6, 2020 7:00 pm YouTube Premiere Presented by: The Greater Cincinnati Planned Giving Council Voices of Giving is presented by the Greater Cincinnati Planned Giving Council to encourage people from all walks of life to make a bequest or planned gift to their favorite charity or nonprofit. The Voices of Giving Awards pay tribute to those Greater Cincinnatians who -- out of selflessness, generosity, and foresight -- have chosen to make a bequest or planned gift to a favorite charitable organization. These individuals represent the true spirit of giving, which truly enhances the quality of life in our community, both now and far into the future. Recognizing that a professional advisor frequently plays a pivotal role in bringing these gifts about, advisors are often honored, as well, for their work with a donor in developing a planned gift. It is our privilege to recognize a very special group of individuals who exemplify philanthropic support and service and who have made a dedicated gesture to ensure the long-term welfare of the many local charitable organizations and nonprofits that make Greater Cincinnati so special. Our grateful thanks! 2020 Voices of Giving Committee Carol Serrone & Michelle Zeis – Co-Chairs Lillian Derkson, Misty Griesinger, David Harris, Bill Hitch, Michelle Mancini, Lisa Roberts-Rosser, Becky Timberlake, Dan Virzi and Felicia Zakem The 22nd Annual Voices of Giving Awards Ceremony PROGRAM Welcome Raynal Moore 2020 President, Greater Cincinnati Planned Giving Council

  • Xi. Preservation in Middle Neighborhoods: Promising Results in Ohio 147
    XI. PRESERVATION IN MIDDLE NEIGHBORHOODS: PROMISING RESULTS IN OHIO By Cara Bertron, Preservation Rightsizing Network and Nicholas Hamilton, The American Assembly, Columbia University At its heart, historic preservation is about recognizing and valuing what was created in the past. It offers a lens for recognizing the value of neighborhoods and telling the stories of the people who have shaped and continue to shape them. This chapter articulates the case for a community- oriented preservation model that supports longtime residents, creates pathways for newcomers, and strengthens neighborhoods for all. The idea that there is economic, social, and environmental value worth preserving in existing buildings, neighborhoods, and communities is an essential theme in stabilizing middle neighborhoods. Stabilization is often discussed in theoretical terms, but it has very practical effects on neighborhood real estate values, as the other chapters in this book attest. Reinvesting in buildings can boost property values. When the process of reinvestment includes and honors local communities and their ongoing stories—their heritage—preservation can be a powerful tool for significant and sustainable change in neighborhood dynamics. Preservation offers an approach to and set of strategies for thoughtfully managing change in areas with high development or demolition pressures. The most obvious tools for managing change are zoning and other local regulations—particularly in designated historic districts—and financial tools, such as historic tax credits and tax abatements.1 However, this chapter focuses on strategies and tools that are not tied to historic designation and thus are more broadly applicable in middle neighborhoods and elsewhere. These tools help to stabilize and strengthen real estate markets in older neighborhoods and, in a related benefit, provide an avenue for active community stewardship of places.
