           ANALYSIS  :    This resolution makes the following legislative  
          findings:

          1. California Library Week seeks to partner with the efforts  
             surrounding National Library Week, which is being celebrated  
                                                                CONTINUED





                                                                     SCR 14
                                                                     Page  
          2

             in public libraries throughout the United States from April  
             14 to April 20, 2013.  More than 21 million people use  
             California's public libraries each year.

          2. California's public libraries are dynamic places, offering  
             books, computers, Internet access, e-mail reference, e-books,  
             and other innovative services to connect their users with  
             ideas and information, and California's public libraries are  
             valued community centers providing education, information,  
             knowledge, and entertainment.

          3. California's public libraries and librarians advance teaching  
             and learning by helping students, faculty, seniors, veterans,  
             researchers, and other members of the general public obtain  
             the best, most accurate, and complete information.

          4. This year the California State Library will be celebrating  
             its 163rd year of providing technical assistance and  
             consultation to California's public libraries, and preserving  
             and hosting an abundance of California's priceless historical  
             items.

          This resolution declares the week of April 14 to April 20, 2013,  
          as California Library Week, and commends California's public  
          libraries, librarians, and all library workers for enriching the  
          lives of California residents and helping to make our state an  
          exceptional place to live, learn, and work.
