Forest-Jackson Public Library Highlights the Importance of Book Checkouts

The Forest-Jackson Public Library posted information on its Facebook page about what append when a book is checked out from the library.

Checkouts show demand, which helps libraries secure funding, expand collections and provide the books people want.

Every checkout proves libraries are essential for learning, literacy and discovery.

Libraries track annual checkouts to understand the needs of their communities, which helps them allocate resources and make informed collection decisions.
