[kids-lib] In the News: Oregon has the highest circulation of children's materials

[Katie Anderson]

A librarian in Connecticut used the public library statistics from libraries across the nation to great an info graphic to represent the highest circulation of children's materials and highest children's program attendance. See the info graphics here: http://librarydatavisual.blogspot.com/2014/07/states-with-highest-circulation-of.html

Oregon has the highest circulation of children's materials in the country! We are also above average when it comes to children's program attendance.

Congratulations on all the great work you are doing in your library to get books in the hands of children and to provide high-quality literacy program for children and their families.

How does your library compare when it comes to children's circulation and children's program attendance? Find out by looking at Oregon's Public Library Statistics at: http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/statsploregon.aspx.

Have questions about your library's statistics? Ask you library director, they are the person who submits them every year.

Enjoy,
Katie
