Prizes, snacks, tours, and more at “After-School Library Card Sign-Up Day”
Welcome back, students!
The library's “After-School Library Card Sign-Up Day” is on Monday, August 29 for all area schools, colleges, and universities (home-school, too!)
This is going to be big!
Prizes will be awarded to anyone who signs up for a library card that day, and there will be free snacks and tours of the facility. This is a perfect way to celebrate the return of the school year, as well as to get connected with the numerous free resources the library has to offer its community! Library staff members will be available to answer questions about these programs and services, and to help you acclimate to the many sections of the library.
Already have a library card?
We want to celebrate your back-to-school season, too! Come enjoy some snacks, learn more about your favorite library, and grab a calendar for September 2016 programs and services!
