Libraries Across the Nation Reveal Their Best Kept Secrets

Danbury Library sparks a national conversation about unexpected library services. The Danbury Library in Connecticut has launched an online campaign to discover the hidden gems and unique services offered by libraries across the country. Their short video, posted on May 23rd, asks a simple question: "What’s your library’s best kept secret?" The response has been significant, with thousands of views and hundreds of comments already. "We wanna hear what all the other libraries are doing," said a representative from the Danbury Library. The campaign aims to highlight the often-overlooked services that libraries provide, beyond the standard offerings of books and computers. Early responses reveal a surprising range of services, including everything from 3D printing workshops to seed libraries and musical instrument lending programs. The campaign is a testament to the evolving role of libraries in their communities, demonstrating their adaptability and commitment to serving diverse needs. This initiative underscores the importance of libraries as community hubs, offering far more than just books.
