The Rochester Regional Library Council (RRLC) will recognize three great libraries in the Rochester area: one public library; one academic or special library; and one school library in honor of National Library Week this coming April.

What makes a great library?
According to a posting on the Library Leadership Network, great libraries:

•    Provide superior service
•    Train and re-train their staff
•    Are well supported by their communities or parent institutions
•    Integrate the marketing of virtual, place, and outreach services
•    Serve both the weakest and the strongest among their constituents
•    Provide education and, as appropriate, entertainment
•    Use virtual tools to offer a full range of timely information and services

Click here to vote online or visit the library for a paper ballot.
Voting will take place between March 1st-20th
