Dear Library Supporters,

Ohio public libraries need your help! Ohio’s public libraries are facing the proposed elimination of the Public Library Fund and a resulting funding loss of over $100 million dollars. Ohio’s public libraries already operate on funding like we had in 2000, with no adjustment for inflation.

How will this impact the library?

The Bluffton Public Library will host the following events and activities during the week of March 31-April 5. For further details and dates, visit www.blufftonpubliclibrary.org/library-events/

Monday, March 31

Hummin’ & Strummin’ Song Circle - 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Tuesday, April 1

Open Chess - 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Wednesday, April 2

Baby Storytime - 10 to 10:30 a.m.

Pre-K Storytime - 10:30 to 11 a.m.

The Friends of Bluffton Public Library are hosting their annual Spring Tea and Silent Auction on Tuesday, May 6. The guest speaker will be local author Dave Essinger, who has published two novels.

The elegant, formal tea will be held at 6:00 p.m. in the library’s Richland Room on the lower level.

Tickets are $20 (cash or check) and will be sold at the library, 134 S. Main St., starting on Tuesday, April 1. The event has limited seating.

Essinger vividly remembers sheltering under school cafeteria tables for “fallout dills” in case of nuclear war, and has been more or less expecting the world to end ever since. His new post-apocalyptic novel This World and the Next is available from Main Street Rag Publishing Company in print and Amazon Kindle in ebook.
