Libraries are at the heart of our communities and schools, providing a public space where all community members can come together to connect and learn. Take your child to get their very own library card this week.
Libraries truly serve as inclusive environments where everyone is welcome—regardless of age, background, or income.
While reading remains at their core, libraries now provide:
- Free access to computers, Wi-Fi, and digital resources
- Educational programs and activities for children, teens, and adults
- Job search assistance and career tools
- Creative spaces like makerspaces and media labs
- Community events that bring people together


Whether it’s helping a child discover the joy of reading or supporting an adult learning a new skill, libraries impact lives every day. This National Library Week, take a moment to rediscover your library—you might be surprised at all it has to offer.
There are plenty of ways to celebrate and support your local library:
- Visit your library and explore something new
- Sign up for a library card if you don’t already have one
- Attend a program, workshop, or storytime (Check out our Events Calendar for upcoming programs)
- Share your love for libraries on social media
