There are three Whole Library Handbooks that have interesting facts,
statistics - put out by ALA. I read mine and just put yellow stickies on the
pages with interesting information.
Of course if you need to do this soon, you will need to see if anyone near you
has a copy you can borrow, but they are invaluable sources of miscellaneous
library information.
