ALA Offers Stats and Research on Libraries
From an ALA press release: American Library Association (ALA) members and other Web visitors can now quickly locate library research and statistics with new top-level navigation from the ALA home page.

Library statistics are organized by type of library for easy access and include links to annual studies of library expenditures and services, state-level library data, library value studies (return on investment), opinion research from national household studies, and topical articles such as “Economic Hard Times and Public Library Use Revisited.”

The Research and Statistics section is at http://www.ala.org/ala/research.
