Special presentations and meetings were all moved online, and access to the library building was curtailed until recently. But just as this difficult year came to a close, Library Director Terry Lucas received some very welcome news. The Library was awarded a $20,000 grant from the Banyan Tree Roots Foundation to upgrade or replace outdated computer equipment and fund programs.

Pueblo City-County Library District named Five Star Library by journal

Library lovers, there is another reason to continue supporting the Pueblo City-County Library District.  For the first time, the district has earned the title of Five Star Library for its work in 2020, a distinction awarded by the Library Journal. Although the library has been awarded distinctions in the star library program previously, this is the first time in five years of consecutive years of being in the program that the district has received a five star distinction. Ann Boyden, marketing manager for the Pueblo City-County Library District, noted the library staff worked hard during 2020 to increase digital offerings to the community, especially by providing programming through virtual methods, such as livestreams on Facebook and YouTube. The library has also offered hotspots, allowing for community members to access the internet despite lack of internet access, and counted more connections to the Wi-Fi offered at all library locations.
