National Library Week

National Library Week (April 19–25, 2020) is a time to celebrate the contributions of our nation's libraries and library workers and to promote library use and support. 

The theme for National Library Week 2020, “Find your place at the library,” was chosen by the American Library Association (ALA) before the emergence of the global pandemic. To acknowledge our altered landscape, ALA flipped the script on the theme. “Find the library at your place” highlights how libraries are offering virtual services and digital content their communities need now more than ever.

To that end, JCLS staff are hiding books around Jackson County throughout National Library Week for residents to find and enjoy. So take a walk, look around, see what you’ll find.
