EDITORS COMMENTS
Celebrate the power of knowledge and the enduring spirit of community during Chicago Public Library Week, March 30 - April 5, 2023. This vintage poster, created between 1936 and 1941, pays tribute to the public library as an American institution. The image of a globe with a book resting on North America represents the vast reach and impact of libraries in our country. During this special week, the Chicago Public Library Administration invites the public to participate in a variety of events and activities designed to showcase the progress and importance of libraries in our modern world. From storytimes for children to author talks and workshops for adults, there is something for everyone. This poster is a testament to the Works Progress Administration (WPA) era, a time when the government recognized the value of cultural and educational programs in uplifting communities during difficult economic times. The WPA funded projects like this one, which not only provided employment opportunities but also helped to promote literacy and learning. As we reflect on the past and look to the future, let us remember the vital role that public libraries play in fostering a love of reading, nurturing curiosity, and providing access to information for all. Join us in celebrating Chicago Public Library Week and the countless ways that libraries enrich our lives.
