A Pew Research Center survey of more than 1,000 Americans conducted in April 2016 finds that Americans continue to express largely positive views about the current state of their local public libraries. (16) For instance, around three-quarters say that public libraries provide them with the resources they need. And 66% say the closing of their local public library would have a major impact on their community, although notably, just 33% say this would have a major impact on them personally or on their family.
    A majority of Americans feel libraries are doing a good job of providing a safe place for people to hang out or spend time as well as opening up educational opportunities for people of all ages. (17) And roughly half think their libraries contribute " a lot" to their communities in terms of helping spark creativity among young people and providing a trusted place for people to learn about new technologies.
    As in past Pew Research Center surveys of library use, the April 2016 survey also measured Americans’ usage of and engagement with libraries. Overall, 53% of Americans age 16 and older have had some interaction with a public library in the past year—either through an in-person visit, or using a library website. (18) Some 48% of adults specifically visited a library in the past 12 months, a modest increase from the 44% who said that in late 2015.
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.
16. What do most Americans say about local public libraries?
17. How can local public libraries benefit young people?
18. What does the 2016 survey show about adult library users?
