After staying for about year and half in Cincinnati, the most appreciating thing in city are The Public Libraries. Main Library resides in downtown of Cincinnati and has about 41 branches spread across the city. Blueash libarary is the one I visit regular,to name few it has wide collections of fiction and non-fiction books, DVD's, documentaries, magazines, audiobooks. All the branches of city are interconnected, one can browse the catalog of library online and order books through the personal account assigned and if material is not available at the location one wants there is provision to order online to pick up at the desired location,if material is not available place hold and can be delivered to required location.It has got drop box too, you can return the material any time of the day. One can also renew materials online.
Apart from encourage all to read from their large collection of resource they host many programs for all age groups.Kids have story telling hour and many personality development sessions. They have summer reading program where goodies are given to people depending the number of books they read, specially motivating kids. There are knitting classes too, discussions on book are also conducted.Totally an amazing platform for people to engage themselves into reading wide range of subjects, interact with like minded reader through discussions or be a part of library by voluteering. One big greet to Public library to provide us with such excellent service, its treat for all readers.
