Celebrate National Library Week with us on

April 11, Snapshot Day!

We will join libraries across the Commonwealth and the nation to provide a “snapshot” of what happens in a day in the life of libraries. During Snapshot Day, libraries will collect data and photos that help demonstrate the value of libraries and raise public awareness that libraries are busier than ever.

Everyone can participate in this second annual event: smile for a snapshot; join in the Library Haiku Contest; tackle some research; get assistance from the Reference, Children’s, Audio-Visual and Circulation desks; borrow or download a book or recording; play and read in the children’s room; go about your usual library business.

On Snapshot Day, patrons can go to mass.gov/libraries and post comments about the ways they use the library.
