This September, the Elmwood Park Public Library is joining libraries nationwide to celebrate Library Card Sign-Up Month! The American Library Association's theme for 2026 is "A Library Card Hits All the Right Notes," reminding us that no matter what your interests are, the library has something for everyone.

Here is just a sample of what your Elmwood Park Public Library card gives you access to:

Endless Reading: Physical books, e-books, audiobooks, magazines, and comic books.

Academic & Professional Support: In-person and virtual homework help, STEAM learning programs, and digital research databases.

Entertainment & Technology: Movies, video games, computer access, and technology workshops.

Community Connection: Story times, crafting classes, book clubs, movie nights, and cozy study nooks.

Bonus: If you stop in to sign up or renew, you can still grab one of our special limited-edition library cards designed in partnership with GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Laufey, who is serving as this year's honorary chair for the initiative.
