Q: What's free, fun, fabulous,
informative, impactful, inspiring?

A: Your library!
September is
Library Card Month and we're strutting
our stuff!

Thank you to all our library card holders!

You've got one. Here are just a few good reasons to encourage your Mountainside friends, family and neighbors to come in for a library card, too!

The library's books, programs and events can help us:

exercise our brains
enhance our knowledge
be entertained
reduce stress
explore realities outside our own
empower our empathy
increase our imagination
motivate us into action
help us relax
take us on an adventure

The best part ... we're right here in town!

We've got books, audiobooks, movies, music, databases, newspapers, magazines, museum passes.

You can come in to browse and borrow or go online to download or stream our many wonderful offerings.

We've got programs and events for adults, for children, for the whole family!

A library card is elemental, yet it offers you limitless opportunities to explore and enlarge your world!

So spread the word:

Get carded!

Make sure the children in your life get one of the most important school supplies they can have - a library card! Students who use the library will find a quiet place to work. We have computer stations and free wireless access. We offer resources to supplement classwork and can help students find materials for their projects and reports.

School + libraries = success!

We're really cooking now:

We've got 2 new book clubs
for adults this fall!
