Library Lovers' Day
by Salman Haider 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

*Dear Library Professionals,* *Let us celebrate February 14 as the Library Lovers Day in India.* *LIBRARY LOVERS DAY* *Library Lovers’ Day* is celebrated on 14th February each year to honor libraries, librarians, book lovers, and lovers of libraries. On Library Lovers’ Day, we celebrate the enduring relationship between our community and the libraries. This also provides an opportunity to celebrate those who love and support libraries and to remind decision-makers how loved and cherished libraries are by the entire community. Not everyone receives flowers on Valentine's Day but everyone is welcome at their library. *HISTORY OF LIBRARY LOVERS DAY* Library Lovers Day started in Australia when the lovers of Australia’s libraries claimed Valentine’s Day – February 14 as the Library Lovers’ Day, but the idea is now getting popular and spreading across the world. *Librarianship Studies & Information Technology blog also endorses February 14th to be celebrated as Library Lovers Day*. For more information and ideas on how to celebrate Library Lovers Day in India please see the source article: *https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2019/02/library-lovers-day.html* <https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2019/02/library-lovers-day.html> Salman Haider *Librarianship Studies & Information Technology <https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/>* blog.
