On Wednesday, October 7, libraries from across New Jersey will participate in another Snapshot Day, to collect photos and statistics of how libraries are being used, the number of people using them and how important libraries are to their communities.
ast February, the New Jersey State Library and the New Jersey Library Association launched a project called “Snapshot: One Day in the Life of New Jersey Libraries.” Its purpose was to capture the impact that New Jersey libraries have on their communities on a typical day, February 19...A survey was created to record the activities, and hundreds of libraries responded with impressive results: 161,367 people visited those libraries. However, the number of people was only part of the picture. In addition librarians answered nearly 20,000 reference questions.
