Library Notes for August 28, 2025
September is National Sign-Up for Library Card Month!
“A library card can be a rite of passage for your child, giving them a sense of obligation and responsibility. As a library patron, children learn the importance of caring for things that belong to others. Children take the essential early step in their development when they obtain their library card and become a conscientious member of the community.” ~ALA
