Library Card Sign-Up Month!
September is Library Card Sign-Up Month! We will be having a month-long scavenger hunt at both branches. Locate the items and win a prize! It will be easy and fun to do, and you'll also learn how to locate different areas of the library. Stop by the Youth Services Desk for more details.
Children ages 4–17 who sign up for their very first library card will receive a special incentive prize! Stop by the Youth Services desk at either branch and show your shiny new library card to a staff member to receive your special gift.
This year’s 2025 theme is “One Card, Endless Possibilities” — where will your library card take you?
