Public Library and Funding Recipient Data

This LibGuide provides statistical information about state aided public libraries within the Commonwealth as well as information about other types of entities that receive federal and state funds from the Commonwealth that support library services.

Individual Public Library Data

The Office of Commonwealth Libraries collects, edits and disseminates statistical information on state aided public libraries in the state. This information is shared with the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and is part of a national effort to collect library data. Due to the reporting requirements set forth by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for the national Public Libraries Survey (PLS), data represented here may be different than the data shared locally.
