The Wauseon Public Library would like to thank Dr. Jayantilal Galani and his wife Prafulla Galani for their generous donation to the joint initiative between It All Matters, the Wauseon Public Library, Wauseon Schools, and Fulton County Health Center, helping begin both the Leap Into Learning Early Literacy Program as well as the Little Indians Backpack program. Thank you so much for your generosity and dedication to boosting early literacy and learning in Wauseon!

Library Director Dan Baldwin was recently awarded a place on the Four County Career Center's Wall of Fame, an award that recognizes the achievements and community service of former students! Dan was nominated by Carol Wolfe, his former guidance counselor, because of his achievements, his twenty years of service at the library, and for all of the wonderful community involvement he has brought to Wauseon. Congratulations on your achievement, Dan!
