National Library Week

Next week, the week of 8-14 April, is National Library Week. This year’s theme is “You belong @ your library.”

First sponsored in 1958, National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association and libraries across the country each April. It is designed to be a time to celebrate the contributions of our nation’s libraries – public, school, academic, and special – and librarians and to promote library use and support.
