Libraries are full of stories in a variety of formats from picture books to large print, from audiobooks to eBooks.
But there's so much more to the story...
Libraries of Things lend items like museum passes, games, musical instruments, and tools.
Library programming brings communities together for entertainment, education, and connection through book clubs, storytimes, crafting, and lectures.
Library infrastructure advances communities, providing internet and technology access, literacy skills, and resources for job seekers, and entrepreneurs.
