National Library Week, April 19–25, 2026, is a time to celebrate the many ways libraries bring people together, spark imagination, and support lifelong learning. From books and digital resources to job assistance and creative programming, libraries are essential to thriving communities.
The Plainview Public Library provides unique programs and services, free Wi-Fi, digital collections, workshops, makerspaces, STEAM programs, etc., ensuring that everyone has access to resources that educate, inspire, and connect.
“Whatever brings you joy, the library has something for everyone,” said Librarian Donna Christiansen. “Whether you’re preparing for a career change, launching a business, raising a family, or embracing retirement, Plainview Public Library is here to support your journey. Libraries serve as hubs for learning, creativity, and connection, helping people of all ages explore new ideas and opportunities.”
First celebrated in 1958, National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association and libraries of all types across the country each April.
