GHPL receives 13th consecutive five-star rating

The Grandview Heights Public Library has received its 13th consecutive five-star rating from Library Journal.

GHPL is 1 of 6 U.S. public libraries to achieve this distinction. GHPL also ranked #1 among libraries in its expenditure category.

This year, the journal’s Index of Public Library Service evaluated 5,608 public libraries across the country. 262 libraries received star ratings, and 85 libraries received five-star ratings. 

Ratings are based on 2018 data from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS)—physical/digital circulation, online content usage, visits, program attendance, and Internet/wireless use, each per capita.
