National Library Week History

National Library Week is a special time in April when we celebrate libraries and the amazing people who work there. Started in 1958 by the American Library Association, it's a chance to show love for all kinds of libraries, like ones in schools, communities, and universities. During this week, we say thank you to librarians and encourage everyone to visit and use their local library.

Back in the 1950s, people were spending less money on books and more on radios, TVs, and musical instruments, which worried the American Library Association (ALA) and book publishers. They teamed up to create the National Book Committee in 1954, aiming to encourage reading and improve people's lives. 

This committee planned the first National Library Week in 1958 with help from the ALA and the Advertising Council, using the theme "Wake Up and Read!" It was a big hit, so they did it again the next year, and the ALA decided to keep doing it every year after that. When the National Book Committee ended in 1974, the ALA took over running National Library Week.
