The Ohio Library Support Staff Institute (OLSSI) is a dedicated group of individuals from all varieties of Ohio libraries including school, special, public, and academic. They volunteer their time and energy each year to organize an annual, residential, multi-day conference for library support staff.
OLSSI believes that library support staff are the backbone of our libraries. As such, they deserve the opportunity to learn new skills, hone long-standing ones, and to communicate, meet, and network with colleagues. We believe a short retreat, away from the workplace, is the perfect way to encourage and revitalize their enthusiasm for library work.
The Ohio Library Support Staff Institute endeavors to provide a rejuvenating and exhilarating environment, one that is both educational and entertaining, away from the everyday pressures of the job. By providing continuing education opportunities for library support staff, OLSSI aspires to make our libraries and ourselves better than they've ever been before!
