🎉 Celebrate Library Card Sign-Up Month with APL this month! 🎉 Throughout September, everyone who signs up for a new APL card, renews their expired APL card, or replaces a lost APL card will be entered into the prize drawing for a new Kindle Fire HD8, courtesy of the Friends of Alpha Park Public Library! The library is also waiving the fee to replace library cards during Library Card Sign-Up Month.

Whether you’re new to the district, or just haven’t visited in a while, this is a great opportunity to get your library card and check out all the resources available at APL, including free programs for all ages, board games, movies, online databases, free apps for eBooks and audiobooks, notary services, computers, study rooms, and much, much more!

Another perk of having your library card is that APL is also a Fine Free library, meaning that you're not charged overdue fines when items are returned late (exceptions apply).

Visit alphapark.org or call 309.697.3822 for more info, and visit the library to get your card!
