Millions of people visit their libraries every week. What’s the draw? Everything. During National Library Week, April 6–12, 2025, take time to discover (or rediscover) what draws people in.
Visit your library and bring friends or family along.
Encourage a friend to get a library card—it’s a simple act that opens up a world of opportunity.
Browse the shelves, join a book club, or attend a storytime. Sketch out your next creative project in a makerspace, hear from an inspiring author, or find expert help with research, job hunting, or tracing your family roots. Libraries connect us to ideas, information, and each other—and they’re built for everyone.
