Ohio is a wonderful place to be a bookworm.

One of the state’s most special libraries, (and a great stop along the Ohio Literary Trail), The Mercantile Library in downtown Cincinnati is a beautiful book haven that avid readers will adore. Home to a massive collection of books, a fascinating history and plenty of Old World charm, it’s probably one of the best places an Ohio bookworm can visit.
