September is Library Card Sign-Up Month

September is Library Card Sign-Up Month, and Stanislaus County Libraries invite everyone to celebrate! As students settle into the new school year, it’s the perfect time to sign up for a library card, an essential school supply. In fact, September is a great time for everyone to stop by one of Stanislaus County’s 13 libraries, get a new library card, and see all that’s new.

With a library card, customers have access to thousands of books and materials, digital resources such as downloadable audiobooks, e-books streaming movies and tv, as well as computers and free WiFi. But, some may be unaware of many other great things a library card offers. Library cardholders can check out a California State Library Parks Pass for day use at more than 200 state parks. Discounted or free tickets to museums and cultural attractions are available through Discover and Go, with a library card. A library card even provides access to home connectivity kits, which include a Chromebook, mouse, headset with a microphone, hotspot device, as well as power adapters and a carrying case.
