The is celebrating National Library week! This year's theme is: You Belong @ Your Library! 

First sponsored in 1958, National Library Week is observed by the American Library Association and libraries across the country each April. Libraries have historically served as our nation's great equalizers of knowledge.  The strength of libraries has always been the diversity of materials in the collection and commitment to serving all people. 

This National Library Week, join our nation's libraries and librarians by celebrating the place where we all belong. Whether you are a job seeker looking for resources to land a new job, a parent looking for free activities for chilcren or a student searching for your next favorite book, You Belong @ Your Library. Today's libraries help level the playing field by making both print and digital information affordable, available and accessible to all people. Libraries provide cultural heritage and genealogical collections, materials in print and electronic formats, job seeking resources, and many other creative and resourceful programs.
