On Monday, April 6, 2026, Washington-Centerville Public Library was announced as a Finalist for the 2026 Torch Award for Ethics by the Better Business Bureau serving Greater Dayton.
We are honored to be recognized as an organization that lives its values. Serving this supportive community is a privilege and we hope you are all proud of how we represent you.
This honor, formerly called the Eclipse Integrity Awards locally, honors organizations that demonstrate a high level of personal character; ensure that the organizations' practices meet the highest standards of ethics; and consequently, generate trust with customers and the community.
We are excited to celebrate alongside the other finalists at the awards dinner on Tuesday, May 12, at 5:30 p.m., at the David H. Ponitz Sinclair Center.
If you would like to join us at the dinner where the winners will be announced, you can order tickets for the event ($99 per person) or sponsor a table of eight ($999). Make your reservations by calling the Better Business Bureau at (937) 610-2277. Please mention that you are there to support your Library, so you are seated near us!
