In 2006, there were more than 4.7 million visits to the public libraries in Montgomery County. That is more than attendance at Kings Island, the Dayton Dragons and the Cincinnati Bengals combined (and we don’t even play on ESPN!). A recent study that looked at local library numbers also showed that we provide $3.69 in value for every tax dollar spent. Judging by all those visits, it looks like lots of people already knew that the library is the best deal in town. Read the entire study here.

The Dayton Metro Library is coming to a television near you! You can get an exclusive first look at the new library commercial right here. After you get done checking out the new commercial, take a look at some of the other great videos from the library including: DMLition (the library cart drill), teen summer reading promotions, and gaming events. Just look at the links to the right of the video.

And don't forget to sign up for the Summer Reading Clubs. This summer we have three great clubs: the children's summer reading club theme is Catch the Reading Bug featuring all our insect friends; the teen club will focus on the sounds of summer with the Tune In @ Your Library club; and adults are invited to join the fun with the It's A Mystery club. All the clubs run from June 2 to August 2 and are supported by the Friends of the Library.
