Cool Kids Celebration

To help celebrate Cool Kids Have a Library Card Month we invited children of all ages and their families to come to the library to hear stories, make a craft, and eat cake. What's a celebration without cake?

The kids got to make bookmarks and book covers. We had a really good time.

I didn't have a chance to take a picture of the cake before it looked like this. So this is the half eaten Cool Kids cake that was enjoyed by all. It was very good cake.

September is...

Cool Kids Have a Library Card Month!!! The American Library Association has designated September as National Library Card Sign-up month. Lake County Public Library is sponsoring a program called Cool Kids Have a Library Card which will continue through the month of September.

If you are a kid and already have a library card come to the circulation desk and show us your card. You will get entered into a drawing for a free book, get a prize, and a sticker put on your library card.

If you are a kid without a library card have mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, guardian, or relative over 18 bring you to the library with their picture ID that has the current address on it or picture ID with a piece of mail postmarked within the last 15 days. They fill out an application and you get your card that same day. You will get entered into a drawing for a free book, get a prize, and a sticker on your library card.

How Cool does that sound? So come in with your card or come in a get one. We are looking forward to seeing you all.
