Library Journal's annual award for the Best Small Library in America, made possible by Ingram, was founded in 2005 to encourage and showcase the exemplary work of small and rural libraries. It honors the U.S. public library that most profoundly demonstrates outstanding service to populations of 25,000 or less (see below for eligibility requirements).
The winner will be announced at the 2023 Association for Rural & Small Libraries (ARSL) Conference, and thanks to support from ARSL, will receive a scholarship to attend and the opportunity to speak.
The winning library will receive a $5,000 cash award, and two finalist libraries will receive $1,000 each. All three will be featured in the September 2023 issue of Library Journal and online.
