National Library Workers Day will be celebrated on Tuesday, April 17 during National Library Week. It is a time to honor the contributions of all library workers, including librarians, support staff, and others who make library services possible.

“Library workers are responsible for a wide variety of services that customers come to expect from their libraries,” said Library Executive Director Kimber L. Fender. “They are in charge of more than just checking books in and out of the Library. Library workers organize programs and events, administer computer networks, update the Library’s website; select and obtain books, CDs, videos, and databases; catalog and shelve materials, handle requests and send them to other libraries, as well as assist customers with answers to an enormous variety of reference questions, plus much more.”
