TY - JOUR AU - Francis P. Donnelly BT - Journal of Librarianship & Information Science IS - 2 LA - English N1 - Used IMLS Public Library Survey data to plot library locations. Found that Southern and Western states had lower percentages of the population living within a library's service area relative to Northeastern and Midwestern states. Compares results to historical studies, particularly Louis Round Wilson's Geography of Reading: A Study of the Distribution and Status of Libraries in the United States (1938).
