The Columbus Library Board presented its annual report at the Feb. 2 council meeting, highlighting expanded offerings and a substantial increase in summer reading participation.
Kathy Kwapnowski, secretary of the library board, introduced a short video summarizing operations and said the number of people attending the summer reading program was "off the charts," with continued growth following the opening of the new building. She invited councilmembers and residents to view the donor wall located at the library and deferred more technical or detailed questions to staff member Jerry.
Councilmembers praised library staff and noted the program’s growth since moving into the new facility. No formal action was taken on the presentation; the report was received as presented.
