It's census day! Why is this important to public libraries? As community demographics change, libraries shift services to meet community needs. Thanks to all of the census and government employees that get this data into our hands.
Justin McElroy@j_mcelroy
tomorrow: it's CENSUS DAY (please clap) this time, the numbers are on citizenship, immigration, mobility, migration and religion the data will be released very early in the morning, because the laurentian elite hates b.c. but I'll be excited to break it down all day

October is Library Month. How better to celebrate than by supporting the provision of diverse collections that represent the full range of human experience in all libraries.
