National Library Week 2021

(MILFORD, MA) – This week, Milford Town Library encourages all community members to visit in person or virtually to explore and access services and programs. MTL offers a wide array of online resources that are available from the comfort of home, including streaming movies, recipes, and foreign language instruction.

April 4-10, 2021 is National Library Week, a time to highlight the essential role libraries, librarians and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening communities. Whether people visit virtually or in person, libraries are accessible and inclusive places that foster a sense of belonging and community through learning, discovery and exploration.

Libraries across the country are making a difference in people’s lives by providing electronic learning resources and wi-fi access for students and workers who may lack internet access at home. MTL is supporting the community with virtual and in-person services like Grab and Go books and free crafts for kids.

This National Library Week, the public can show their appreciation and support for libraries by visiting their library’s website, following them on social media and using the hashtag #NationalLibraryWeek.

First sponsored in 1958, National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association and libraries of all types across the country each April.
