2026 Theme: Find Your Joy

April 19th to April 25th

What brings you joy? Whether it’s cozying up with a new story, learning a new skill, gathering with community, or something else, you can find your joy at the local library.

National Library Week, April 19–25, 2026, is a time to celebrate the many ways libraries bring people together, spark imagination, and support lifelong learning. From books and digital resources to job assistance and creative programming, libraries are essential to thriving communities.

We invite everyone to join the celebration! Whether you're a longtime patron, a new neighbor, or haven’t visited in a while, now is the perfect time to explore all the library has to offer. Our library provides the Friends of the Conway Public Library Program Series, Storytime programs, free Wi-Fi, digital collections and other materials, such as telescopes, historical research, after-school events, a year-long Odyssey of the Mind workshop, etc., ensuring that everyone has access to resources that educate, inspire, and connect.



Whatever brings you joy, the library has something for everyone. Whether you’re preparing for a career change, launching a business, raising a family, or embracing retirement, we are here to support your journey. Libraries serve as hubs for learning, creativity, and connection, helping people of all ages explore new ideas and opportunities.

National Library Workers Day

National Library Workers Day, which falls on the Tuesday of National Library Week—April 21st this year—celebrates the crucial role of library staff and library volunteers.

These dedicated individuals foster community engagement, transforming libraries into vibrant places that offer more than just book lending. They cater to the diverse needs and expectations of our community, making information, books, and resources more accessible. Their efforts are what truly make libraries thrive!
