September is a time when families are getting into routines with school, clubs, practices, busy, busy. It’s also Library Card Sign-Up Month everywhere! Your library card is one of the most important tools to get your families and you off the ground. There are so many things that you can do at your local Santa Fe libraries. Did you know you can fill out paperwork for voter registration? There are computers to access the internet, update your resume, write a letter. You can use a consumer guide to decide on what kind of appliances,cars, foods to buy. There are audio books to borrow for a road trip or commute. Sign up your little ones for a preschool story time or Books and Babies. Post a flyer. See beautiful art displays. Read a local newspaper or one of your favorite magazines. There are movies, music, and let’s not forget the books. If we don’t have the book, chances are we can get it for you, or show you how you can get it. And all these things are free! Link onto the ALA website http://www.ala.org/ala/pio/otherinit/card/librarycard.htm and find out more.
So come in and get your card if you don’t have one already, stop in and say hi, and get to know your librarians! There is also another website that supports libraries and gives lots of resources http://www.ilovelibraries.org/ and learn more about why people love their libraries.
