September is Library Card Sign-Up Month!


September is Library Card Sign-up Month and the Longwood Public Library Children's Department wants to make sure that your child is among the two-thirds of Americans that carry the smartest card of all - a library card. Studies show that children who are read to in the home and use the library perform better in school and are more likely to continue to use the library as a source of lifetime learning.

So, sign up for a library card...it's free!

Every child that signs up for their first library card will receive a "Welcome to the Library" bag filled with a special treat.

For those children who already have their own library card - show us and enter a raffle to win some great prizes.

Winners will be announced October 1st...contact the Children's Reference Desk with any questions you may have at 924-6400 ext. 236.
