National Library Week 2022: Connect with Your Library

4/3/2022

April 3-9, 2022 is National Library Week, and this year’s theme is “Connect with Your Library.” Libraries are places to connect to technology by using broadband, computers, and other resources, and libraries also offer opportunities to connect with media, programs, ideas, and classes in addition to books. Most importantly, libraries connect communities to each other.

This National Library Week, the public can show their appreciation and support for libraries by visiting their library in person or online, by following them on social media, and by using the hashtag #NationalLibraryWeek.

There are also several Celebration Days within National Library Week:

Monday, April 4: State of America's Libraries Report released, including The Top Ten Frequently Challenged Books of 2021.
Tuesday, April 5: National Library Workers Day, a day for library staff, users, administrators, and Friends groups to recognize the valuable contributions made by all library workers.
Wednesday, April 6: National Library Outreach Day (formerly National Bookmobile Day), a day to celebrate library outreach and the dedicated library professionals who are meeting their patrons where they are.
Thursday, April 7: Take Action for Libraries Day, a day to rally advocates to support libraries.
