"Communities Thrive @ Your Library"

That's the theme for this year's National Library Week running from April 11 to 17, 2010. Sponsored annually by the American Libraries Association, National Library Week promotes libraries of all types: school, public, academic, and special. In conjunction with the week's celebration, the ALA released its annual report, The State of America's Libraries, which details many current trends, particularly the impact of the recession on the use and provision of library services across the United States.
