Our improvements to the outdoor spaces at the library are complete. We hope you visit soon to enjoy the beautiful landscape and outdoor gathering spaces. You can see the amazing changes and ribbon cutting photos in our Facebook Album. Better yet, come visit and see for yourself. 

Lanscape Renovation, start to finish

Where did the funding coming from?

The landscaping project was funded by Ohio’s Public Library Funds and annual capital improvement funds automatically provided by the state, which we must use. Every year, all Ohio public libraries receive 1.7% of state revenues, and because this amount has increased in past years, we had more to use than previously budgeted. We are excited to have reinvested this money into improving the building and its grounds for the benefit of our community.

"We want to bring young families into Ravenna. Creating family-friendly spaces would not only accomplish that but also enhance downtown's green spaces. We sit on the east end of Main Street welcoming people downtown. We're one of the first impressions outsiders get of our city."
