Are you a librarian, educator, civic leader or a member of the public who is interested in your local public library\u2019s role in your community? Compare the library engagement of your library or group with the rest of the country using our new \u201ccommunity quiz\u201d tool<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n

\"What<\/a><\/figure>\n\n

With the community quiz tool, you can learn how your community\u2019s members use their local public library, how they think about their library\u2019s impact on the community, and how they view the importance of libraries in the digital age. You will also see how the responses of your group compare with those of the general population, based on the results<\/a> of our nationally representative September 2013 phone survey.<\/p>\n\n

The\u00a0new quiz tool allows you to create your own version of our library user quiz<\/a>\u00a0and invite members of your community to take it. You will then be able to see the overall results of everyone who have taken your version of the quiz. (Note: You will be able to see the aggregate quiz results for your group; everyone who takes the quiz will do so anonymously and the answers of individual respondents will not be available.)<\/p>\n\n

To get started, click here to register your group<\/a>.<\/strong> You will then receive an email with your unique URL and group ID, which you can use to \u00a0invite members of your group to take your version of the quiz.
