Design / Methodology / Approach. The object of the research werw 1738 libraries of the Slovak Republic, using the statistics for period 2016-2020. We used eighteen fifferent indicators, such as „active library services users“, „library visitors“, etc.
Findings. There is a strong statistical dependence based on the obtained results for the research questions and the multiple correlation dependence between the number of libraries and indicators such as the number of book units, the number of loans, and the number of visitors. Because of this, it was possible to outline new recommendations to support the sustainability and development of public libraries in the Slovak Republic.
