The Library Research Service generates library statistics and research for library and education professionals, public officials, and the media. LRS reports and analyzes statistics on school, public, and academic libraries, and conducts studies on major library issues that are reported in the Fast Facts and Closer Look series. Topics of continuing interest to the LRS and its clients are the impact of school librarians on student achievement, public libraries and the use of web technologies, and the changing library workforce.
LRS is a unit of the Colorado State Library, which is an office of the Colorado Department of Education. Additionally, LRS works in partnership with the University of Denver Library, Morgridge College of Education, Library and Information Science Program to offer research fellowships to current MLIS students.

This tool allows for quick extraction of data from Colorado school libraries for 2007-08. It allows for multiple statistics to
be presented in a sortable, tabular format. The results represent data received from school libraries that completed the 2007-08
Colorado School Library Survey. Please note that since all data were derived from responses to the survey, schools that did not
respond to the survey are not represented here.
