September is National Library Card Sign-up month - why everyone needs a library card

September is National Library Card Sign-up month. An important part of the start of any school year is coming into the Library and getting your library card.

Why a library card? Your library card is a passport to all kinds of adventures. You can read the latest bestseller, catch up with a favorite author, learn a new language (both in the library, by book or our online Mango Languages program), find online job resources, learn about new cultures, get help with homework, and the list just keeps on going.

Studies have shown that students do better when they use the library - libraries provide resources for homework, introduce children to new ideas and concepts and make learning fun. A library card is your gateway into this expanded world of knowledge.

Libraries provide high speed Internet access, so if you need to look for information, keep up with friends on Facebook or look for a job, we can help you. We have computer coaches available and trained professional staff that can help you find out about new careers, new places, new hobbies. We have what you need.


All of this is available with your Library Card. Come on and in and start your adventure.
