September 2026

Library Card Sign-up Month

No matter what your tastes are, a library card hits all the right notes!

Check out a classic story or hit shuffle and try something new. Find harmony at your library’s book clubs, crafting classes, and storytimes. A headphone kind of day? Find your focus in the study room or vibe out in a cozy nook. Compose your future with new skills in your library’s makerspace or check out STEM Kits and cakepans in the Beyond Books collection. No matter what rhythm you find yourself in, there’s a seat in the front row at the library for you.

This September, B sharp, and sign up for a library card!
