The Warren-Trumbull County Public Library has joined the American Library Association and libraries nationwide in observing “Library Card Sign-Up Month.” The community is invited to discover the resources and opportunities available at local libraries by signing up for a card in September.
This year’s theme, “A Library Card Hits All the Right Notes,” is a reminder that libraries offer something for everyone—no matter your interests.
Since 1987, Library Card Sign-Up Month has been held each September to mark the beginning of the school year. The annual event encourages parents, caregivers, and students to sign up for a free library card that will save them money while offering rewards in academic achievement and lifelong learning.
Today’s libraries are vibrant community centers offering much more in addition to books. At the W-TCPL, visitors and patrons find diverse programs, computer and tech classes, storytimes, book clubs and author talks. From borrowing books, eBooks, and audiobooks to streaming movies, a library card helps everyone find more of what they enjoy – all without stretching their budget.
How to sign up
Anyone who lives, works, attends school or owns property in Ohio is eligible to sign up for a free W-TCPL library card. To sign up, stop by any W-TCPL location (Brookfield, Cortland, Eastwood Mall, Howland, Liberty or Warren) or visit the Bookmobile or Pop-Up Library. For information about signing up for a digital library eCard, visit the library website.
