SENATE RESOLUTION PROCLAIMING APRIL 6-12, 2025, TO BE "NATIONAL LIBRARY WEEK" IN THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND
This Senate resolution designates April 6-12, 2025, as "National Library Week" in Rhode Island. It ceremonially recognizes libraries as community hubs that provide free access to resources, support digital equity, and foster inclusive spaces. The resolution directs the Secretary of State to send certified copies to all Rhode Island libraries and thanks library staff for their service. It has no binding policy effect - it is purely a symbolic acknowledgment of libraries' role in the community.
