> 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,
> 
> Karen Moore, Director
> Forest-Jackson Public Library
