Ainsworth Public Library Named One of America’s Star Libraries

For the first time ever, the Ainsworth Public Library has received a Three STAR rating in Library Journal’s Index of Public Library Service 2016!   The Library Journal Index gives an overall indication of how libraries stack up to their peers nationally.  Over 7,300 libraries across the nation were evaluated for the “America’s Star Libraries” report with only twelve libraries in Nebraska receiving this award.  To be recognized as one of the top libraries in the nation, the libraries were rated on five separate categories:  number of visitors, rate of circulation, attendance at local programs, internet usage, and electronic circulation.  The complete report on our library is posted on the bulletin board if you would like to view.

We could not have achieved this national recognition without our exceptional library patrons.  Thank you to our library patrons, our fantastic community partners, our library staff, our Library Board of Trustees, and our Library Foundation Board for making us an America’s Star Library.
