Energy Conservation @KSL...How 126 sensors now control nearly 1,000 light fixtures....

You've seen the ladders in KSL since January...electricians changing over 1,000 lightbulbs, installing relays and sensors. You've seen lower lighting in areas when nobody is in them--and when you walk in, sensors activate the lights.

Motion sensors, light sensors–it's all part of the Case Energy Conservation Program, expected to recover costs in KSL within 1 year. Adjustments will continue throughout the year, based on feedback and longer daylight hours. Read more about all the details on the KSL homepage, including the expected savings, where sensors are, what to expect (walk in/wave your arm), and more. You might even see a Case electrician in the middle of the night, checking for adjustments!

Ohio Tax Forms @KSL..and more online

KSL has Ohio state tax forms for you (2nd floor, on shelving nearest to the Reference collection/large study tables.) This year, KSL was not designated as a site for printed federal forms, but they are available from the Internal Revenue Service, along with an online FAQ, news, phone numbers, and more.

Tax Forms 2005 is a helpful website created by KSL's Government Documents department, with links to municipal, state, and international forms, and other statistical and tax resources.
