During the yearly certification renewal process, a library may seek the Quality Library Designation. This means they meet six or more of the quality library criteria for library efforts conducted in the previous 12 months. A benefit of receiving this designation is that the library will not have to go through the recertification process in the next recertification round. When a library receives the quality designation, they will also receive public recognition from the State Library and a certificate of achievement.

Libraries choosing to pursue the designation of Quality Library, must complete the online form and meet at least 6 of the 10 quality criteria.
