What's changed at your library since the recession began? 

National Library Week is fast approaching. As we started to think about
how Marketplace would observe this often overlooked time of year, we
became interested in how libraries have responded to the ongoing
unemployment issues facing the nation. 

Does your local public library now double as a job center? If so, tell
Marketplace about it here.

Perhaps you're a job seeker who's spending hours at a time on your
library's computers looking for work. Or maybe you're a librarian who
responded to increasing unemployment in your community by creating
programming for people without jobs. If you've noticed changes like
these at your local library, or other changes we're not thinking about,
click here to share your insights.
