Libraries - 2022 Circulation by Location

Circulation figures include new checkouts, renewals, downloadable media, Talking Book and Braille downloadable materials.

Many locations experience sporadic closures to perform facilities upgrade or emergency closures due to heating or air conditioning issues, or area power outages.
