JEFFERSON COUNTY, Ohio (WTRF) — Your kids will be out of the classroom for 12 weeks this summer.
But the Jefferson County Library System wants you to know that you don't have to take 12 weeks off from learning.

Whether you want to relive Ohio's early days at Fort Steuben or see Mister Roger's sweaters at the Heinz History Center, you can check out this experience and pass at any library.
Our partnership with Heinz Center Affiliates and the Whitehall Public Library is based on a mutual community mission.
“Museums and libraries are kind of a partnership, and we're both hubs for our communities. But in addition to that, we also promote and encourage literacy, education, history and culture. So this is very It’s a natural fit.”
