The American Library Association has published its annual State of America's Libraries Report for 2013, which is available in full online. A supplement of the association's American Libraries magazine, this special report takes a look at where libraries stand, how people are currently using the spaces and services provided, and how libraries are adapting to larger cultural changes such as the prominence of social networking. Not just for public librarians, the report also discusses the state of library services in schools and academia. Additionally, the document emphasizes the adaptability of libraries in the digital age, while also pointing out where there is room for improvement. The report may be downloaded as a PDF or viewed via a Flash-enabled magazine viewer. [AHT]
