> Hello,
>
> I am the director of a small public library in Ohio that has recently
> moved into a beloved, historical building that used to be a Freight
> House. I am attaching a photo of the building.
>
> Our small community of 1250 has raised over $150,000 of the $200,000
> purchase price of the building. I am looking for any funding sources
> in order to complete the effort to pay for this building. Do you know
> of any?
>
> We are very proud of our building and believe that our Library has the
> most unique building in Ohio. The building still has the original
> freight scales that are in working order. We would love to build on
> the train theme, unfortunately we lack anyone with expertise to guide
> us.
>
> If your group has any advice for us, we would appreciate it.
>
> Thanks,
>
