Every year, the American Library Association releases their State of America's Libraries report at the start of National Library Week. This year's title covers the lingering effects of COVID-19 & the highest book challenges in over 20 years. buff.ly/3J5Iwf1
This year's #NationalLibraryWeek theme is "there's more to the story". Just like how you can't judge a book by its cover, there is more to libraries than their books or what you read in the news. What unique experience did you get at your library? Let us know in the comments!
It's #NationalLibraryWeek! This year's honorary chair is Kelly Yang, author of the "Front Desk" series of children's novels. She said that libraries are the reason why an immigrant child who spoke no English became a published writer as an adult.

Green thumbs are welcome at our libraries. In addition to the thousands of items about gardening, many Allegheny County public libraries host seed and plant swaps or run seed libraries. Ask your library about how they can help you grow (literally and metaporically).
The American Library Association just reported that book challenges nearly DOUBLED in 2022, breaking the record for highest number of book challenges since they started recording twenty years ago. Read the press release here: buff.ly/3LKynJG
