Library News
September is Library Card Sign-Up Month!
The most important school supply is a library card! With access to technology, innovative programming, and educational resources, a library card gives people of all ages the tools to succeed in school, pursue their dreams, explore new passions, and find their voice. If you don’t have a library card we hope you’ll visit us soon to sign up for one, or sign up for a temporary card online for immediate access to some of our collections. You can also sign up for a library card at Hanson Day on Saturday, September 16th!
