A Treasure Hunt @ Your Library! Find one of the 24 Geocaches placed by the Toledo-Lucas County Public Library in all of its 18 Branch locations and 6 located in the beautiful Main Library in downtown Toledo, Ohio.
This is one of 24 caches that the Toledo-Lucas County Public Library is placing in the Northwest Ohio Area. Many, many resources were used to organize this project to not only promote geocaching but to also run the project along with the 2010 National Library Week.
Cache Seekers DO NOT need a library card nor make any purchases to participate in the Library's Geocache hides.
The above coordinates will lead the cacher to Library property. Go to the 3rd Floor, Local History Department. There is an enclosed glass room, (looks like a conference room). The Geocache (book) is hidden among the other books in the wall. The cacher will either need to ask a librarian or use the Library's computer catalog system to locate the book/cache on the shelf. The Dewey decimal number and title for each book/cache is different for each Library branch. Therefore, the experience will be quite different for each cache attempt.
There are SIX (6) book/caches hidden inside Main Library. When you find them, they will then inform you of the next title/book to search for. This Multi-Cache will give you quite an extensive tour of the Library. If you have never been to Main Library or its just been awhile, you will find that a lot has changed. If you are touring the area, the Library is just another one of Toledo's hidden gems.
All six (6) cache logs must be signed to get credit for this cache!
Please be aware of posted Library hours, as each branch is different. The first stage caches are available 24-hours a day. Security cameras are on site; however, security personnel are aware of Geocachers and the cache locations.
The Toledo-Lucas County Public Library is currently the only known library to place GeoCaches in their Library's computer catalog system as searchable materials. The Geocaches, however, cannot be checked out and are flagged by the system as materials that cannot leave the library.
Please DO NOT leave anything in the cache, but do feel free to take a bookmark or other Library SWAG. Be sure to sign the logbook.
Please be mindful of others that are using the Library for normal purposes. You shouldn't need to use too much stealth to conceal your activities from muggles. Pulling a book off of a shelf will not draw too much attention your way. Be sure to place the outside cache back exactly where you found it.
Have fun and ENJOY YOUR LIBRARY!
