This September, the Palm Beach County Library System is celebrating Library Card Sign-Up Month with a special incentive encouraging members to share the Library with friends and family.
For members who bring a friend or family member to any Library location to sign up for a new Library card, or renew an expired card, both will be entered into a drawing for a special prize. Both participants will also receive a limited-edition Pop-It keychain featuring the phrase “I Heart Palm Beach County Library System,” while supplies last.
To participate, visit any Palm Beach County Library System location in person: www.pbclibrary.org/locations
Every September, libraries across the country celebrate Library Card Sign-Up Month, a national campaign launched by the American Library Association to highlight the value of libraries and encourage people to discover everything a Library card has to offer.
One card can lead to countless possibilities. Whether you are getting your first Library card, renewing an old one or referring a friend, Library Card Sign-Up Month is the perfect time to discover something new.
A Library card puts a world of resources within reach. Members can borrow audiobooks and specialized educational kits, download e-books and e-audiobooks and stream movies and music. They can also explore newspapers and magazines, access accurate research tools and discover resources for learning new skills. A Library card assists with everything from homework and career development to mastering a new language or exploring a new hobby.
Beyond the collection, Library locations are places to learn, create and connect. Members of all ages can attend technology and health classes, participate in book discussions and social activities, explore creative events and receive one-on-one research assistance. Children and families can enjoy storytimes and activities that encourage early literacy, learning and a lifelong love of reading.
