Expenditure Range:
Welcome to the latest update on America’s Star Libraries and the data that earn them that distinction. The LJ Index of Public Library Service 2012, sponsored by Baker & Taylor’s Bibliostat, is based on 2010 data released by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
Below are the libraries that received stars from the LJ Index of Public Library Service 2012, divided into peer groups by expenditure category.
To see the scores of all 7570 libraries included, go to Find a Library.
Note on the tables:
Data in these tables are sorted initially by number of stars and score.
All of the tables are resortable. For example, to sort within an expenditure range by circulation per capita, click the “Circulation per Capita” cell in the head row of the table.
The first sort will be descending, another click will switch to ascending.
To sort by another criterion, select another cell in the head row of the table.
To sort the table by two criteria at the same time, first click the header column you’d like to be the initial sort factor. Then add a secondary sort by holding shift while selecting a another column.
You can also use the search box at the top right corner of the table to search for and filter text in the table.
