April 8 is National Library Workers Day (NLWD), a time to recognize library professionals for their expertise and commitment to transforming lives and communities through education and lifelong learning.
To show appreciation for The Farmington Libraries staff and the work they do throughout the year, members of the community are invited to “Submit a Star” by providing a testimonial about a favorite library employee at http://bit.ly/librarystar. Patrons are welcome to share stories on how library staff have an impact on their lives or community. Each testimonial will be posted in the “Galaxy of Stars” on the NLWD website at ala-apa.org/nlwd to honor library workers.
Established in 2003, National Library Workers Day (NLWD) celebrates the contributions of all library workers, including librarians, support staff and others who make library service possible every day. NLWD is held annually during National Library Week (April 6 – 12, 2025) and is sponsored by the American Library Association-Allied Professional Association (ALA-APA).
