From WOOD COUNTY DISTRICT PUBLIC LIBRARY

Wood County District Public Library is happy to share that a new water bottle filling station has been installed in the Bowling Green library building.

“When the Walbridge Library was being renovated, we added a water bottle filling station there,” said library director Michael Penrod. “It proved to be quite popular with users in Walbridge, so the decision was made to upgrade our water fountain in BG. Patrons and library staff appreciate the convenience it provided. And, while this may be a small step, it is nonetheless an important one for us as the library joins the community in looking for ways to address the issue of plastic waste.”

The new sensor-activated water bottle filling station is located in the main hallway of the BG library.
