二、

National Library Week

Sponsored for the first time in 1958 by the National Book Committee and the American Library Association, National Library Week is an officially recognized seven-day period in the spring of each year during which special attention is given to promoting libraries of all types in the United States. Most public libraries celebrate the event by displaying posters and exhibits, issuing press releases, and sponsoring book talks and other promotional activities. In the UK, a similar event known as National Libraries Week is celebrated in the fall of each year. Click here to connect to the ALA gateway to Celebrating America's Libraries.
