The Ohio Department of Taxation (ODT) has posted the December 2016 Public Library Fund (PLF) distribution. This month’s distribution of $32,517,693 brings the year-to-date total to $377,013,870. The distribution is $886,661 below ODT’s estimate for the month, but almost the same as the distribution from December 2015. Overall, state tax receipts came in below projections (-2.65%). 

A look at the PLF distribution for the past three years and a link to an Excel spreadsheet listing each county’s distribution total for December 2016 can be found on the OLC website.
