On Tuesday, April 23, the Downtown Orlando Partnership presented OCLS with a Golden Brick Award of Excellence for our 100 Year Celebration! The award recognizes OCLS for our yearlong celebration that “highlighted the past, present and future of the library, positioning it as a welcoming destination that has had something to offer for everyone for the past century.” Every single library staff member played a role in making our 100 Year Celebration a success and continues to make our libraries vital and relevant.
OCLS’s Instagram account was recognized by the Florida Authors & Book Lovers Bookstagram Awards as the 2024 Best Florida Library. Out of the 13 libraries nominated, followers, fans and customers voted for OCLS by commenting and tagging our account most often. The premise of the award was to call out the libraries fostering thriving online communities to inspire creativity and reading in innovative ways.
