And it's National Library Week. If you haven't checked out (get it) your local library recently, you may have missed the transformation—libraries are not just books, but media catalogs, information access centers, research professionals, and community centers with learning programs for every age, with focuses on adult education for job seeking, career advancement and personal development as well as fostering and feeding a love of learning for everyone.
And they are particular busy during tax season. Libraries don't provide tax advice, but they are experts in guiding you to the best resources address your needs.
Have a question? Ask a librarian.
I'm enjoying the irony that one of my favorite comments during National Library Week is from PC Mag:
Any four-year-old will tell you that a library is a building that lends books, but the real purpose of a library is to amass and disseminate knowledge. So, even if printed matter were to disappear, libraries would still be a cultural necessity.For my locals, take a moment to explore the redesigned website of the San Francisco Public Library, then visit a branch—they have nearly finished their ambitious project of physically renovating every branch. There's one near you.
