Happy Library Card Sign-Up Month! It is completely FREE to get a library card when you live in Lackawanna County, so celebrate with us by signing up or making sure your current card is up to date.

💳 This September, the Lackawanna County Library System invites you to celebrate Library Card Sign-up Month and discover the endless possibilities a library card unlocks. This year’s theme, “A Library Card Hits All the Right Notes,” is a reminder that libraries offer something for everyone. Whether you play the classics on repeat, hit shuffle to try something new, or find harmony at your library’s programs, a library card connects people of all ages and backgrounds to information, inspiration, and each other.

Library Card Sign-up Month is held by the American Library Association annually in September to mark the beginning of the school year, combat illiteracy, and encourage communities to explore the diverse materials and resources offered by their libraries. Library Card Sign-up Month gives library patrons a front row seat to the joys of getting a library card.
