Ogden library earns top-tier accreditation; summer program reports 239 sign-ups
Summary
Mayor Lori announced the library achieved tier three (highest) state accreditation and staff reported 239 children enrolled in summer reading programs with two weeks of programming left before the July wrap-up.
Mayor Lori told the council the Ogden Public Library earned tier three accreditation from the state library system, the highest level for a library of the city's size.
"Tier three is the highest level of accreditation recognizing libraries that meet rigorous standards for governance, collection services, technology, planning and community support for a library of our size," Lori said, and noted the city received a certificate. Staff also reported 239 summer-reading sign-ups and that programming will wrap up late July.
