Topics addressed in these "Fast Facts" from 2008 include computer usage by public library patrons, Colorado summer reading programs, children's' use of public libraries, and the distribution of jobs for school librarian jobs in Colorado. Also addressed in these brief reports are differences in financial support for library districts and other types of public libraries, an evaluation of Colorado's LibraryJobline.org, and challenged materials in Colorado public libraries during the previous year.
