Use Your Card For a Chance to Win Gift Cards It may be small, but a library card packs a mighty punch. In addition to borrowing both physical and digital reading material, cardholders can access DVDs, CDs, board games and more. Patrons can take part in engaging programs like book clubs, movie matinees, crafting programs, and lectures. You can also access Wi-Fi and many digital resources to support your goals, whether you're a student, job seeker, entrepreneur, or lifelong learner. It’s one card with endless possibilities! At RPL, using your card in September will earn you an entry to win a drawing for gift cards for local businesses. All you have to do is use your card at the Main or Branch library to enter. |
