Search. Create. Inspire.
Ohio’s public libraries are the centers of their communities, connecting people with knowledge, fostering creativity, and inspiring growth. Every day, library professionals make a lasting impact by empowering learners and opening doors to opportunity.
The 2026 OLC Convention and Expo will celebrate that powerful work. Join us at the Kalahari Convention Center in Sandusky for three days of learning. Together, we’ll explore new ideas, share best practices, and celebrate the vital role libraries play in building stronger, more vibrant communities across Ohio.
