Library System Gets a Pat on the Back

(Here's some big news from our Main Library:) The Charlotte Mecklenburg Library (formerly the Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County) and South County Regional Library have once again been designated a “Five-Star” library. This is a due in large part to the support and patronage we receive from you, the people of Charlotte. Thanks! Wondering what a Five-Star Library is? It’s the highest possible rating given out by the Library Journal, and it’s similar to the Michelin and Mobile guides used for restaurants and hotels. They’ve actually given it to use twice: first in February 2009, then again in November 2009.

The Library Journal Index is based equally on four things: visits, circulation, program attendance, and public Internet computer use.
