<font face="Verdana">Good Morning: I'm working with my library
board to revise our library's no-smoking policy, to prohibit
smoking anywhere on library property. While researching the
policies of other libraries, I noticed this information about
changes to Oregon's Indoor Clean Air Act, from the Oregon Health
Authority. "Effective on January 1, 2016, the ICAA will include
the use of "inhalant delivery systems.....Under the law,
Oregonians will not be able to use e-cigarettes and other inhalant
delivery systems in workplaces....or other venues." For more
details, take a look at:<br>

<br>
This was news to me. I bet some Oregon libraries are already
revising their no-smoking policies to comply with these upcoming
changes to the ICAA, as we are.<br>

All the Best from the south coast,<br>
