SnapShot PA Event

SnapShot PA: A Day in the Life of Pennsylvania’s Libraries

The Office of Commonwealth Libraries, the Pennsylvania Library Association and the Pennsylvania School Librarians Association are all working together to take Pennsylvania’s own SnapShot PA on October 28, 2009. More information on how you can participate will be available soon

We are asking librarians from all types of libraries to participate: public and academic libraries, school and special libraries, institution libraries and government libraries; from the tiniest facility to the largest county systems. We will create a quick survey for you to capture the daily activities of libraries across the state. Then we will collate these statistics to use as an advocacy tool.

The State Library of New Jersey and the New Jersey Library Association did a similar project early this year. Basically, libraries kept statistics on certain activities that day, as well as documented the day with photos and videos. To see New Jersey’s project go to www.njlibraries.org
