Newport Beach Indy: 12.08.2017
The
Newport Beach Public Library was recently
named as a “Star Library” in a national ranking,
authorities announced this week.
Board
of Library trustees announced Thursday that the city library earned the honor
in a list compiled by the Library Journal, in its tenth edition of the Library
Journal of Public Library Service.
This
year, 7,409 U.S. public libraries were scored on the LJ Index of Public Library
Service, explained NBPL Marketing Specialist Katherine Mielke in the press
release.
They
compared five areas: Total circulation, library visits, program attendance,
public access computer use, and circulation of electronic materials.
Of
the 259 named as America’s Star Libraries, thirteen are in California with just
four in Southern California. Newport Beach Public Library is the highest
scoring library in Orange County. This is the fifth year in a row, and ninth
time in ten years, that NBPL has been named a Star Library, according to
Mielke. READ MORE >>
