Take Action for Libraries Day to launch during National Library Week

First sponsored in 1958, National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association (ALA) and libraries across the country each April. All types of libraries – school, public, academic and special participate. National Library Week celebrations also include the release of the American Library Association’s 2017 “State of America’s Libraries Report” on Monday, April 10; National Library Workers Day, April 11; and National Bookmobile Day on Wednesday, April 12.  In addition, April is School Library Month, which is sponsored by the American Association of School Librarians, a division of the ALA.
