Library Week at Limestone Township Library District

 

Library Week at Limestone Township Library District

 

National Library Week began on Sunday, April 6 and runs through Saturday, April 12. This week is an annual celebration highlighting the valuable role libraries, librarians, and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening our communities. This year’s theme is Drawn to the Library!

With that in mind, Limestone Township Library District is celebrating by holding a Bookmark Design Contest. The five winning bookmarks will be used during our summer reading program in our summer reading packets and on the front desk.

Community members are being asked to come up with a design that incorporates our theme of Summer Reading: Where Wild Wonders Await. It could feature animals or a nature scene. It could feature up close images or a far-off scene. The goal is to create something fun that reflects the idea of Where Wild Wonders Await.

Blank bookmarks will be available at the Front Desk for you to begin your creation. If you have any questions, please call the library at 815-939-1696.

Check out our upcoming programing. Call us if you would like to register for any of these programs.

National Library Card Sign-Up Month at Limestone Township Library District

 

National Library Card Sign-Up Month at Limestone Township Library District

During National Library Card Sign-Up month, you might be wondering what all you can get with that card.

Many of our patrons can tell you it’s about finding stories about places and people they may never meet in person. Some might talk about how great it is to be able to check out books that you have heard about but do not own yourself. And even if your local library doesn’t own the book or item you are looking for, they can reach beyond their walls to other libraries’ collections to find your desired item.

But a library also gives you opportunities to learn new skills, to utilize our copier/fax machine, or get online through our public access computers.

A library card is your key to an arsenal of resources.

If you live in Limestone Township, you need to bring your driver’s license and a piece of mail with your address on showing proof of residency to get a card. If you live in the non-residents areas, you will need to pay an annual fee for your library card that is equal to the average amount of taxes paid by Limestone Township residents.

If you are not certain if you live within Limestone Township or in the Non-resident area, call the library and we will verify what you need to do to get a library card.

For the month of September, young bookworms between the ages of 5 through 15 years of age can receive a FREE 8" pizza coupon to Monical's Pizza when they sign up for a new library card or renew their existing card. The coupons expire on September 30, 2024 so hurry in. For more information, call us at 815-939-1696.

Check out our upcoming programing.

Limestone Township Library District Celebrates National Library Card Sign Up Month with Pizza.

 

Limestone Township Library District Celebrates National Library Card Sign Up Month with Pizza.

September is the month when the American Library Association (ALA) encourages people to sign up for a library card in their community. This year’s honorary chair is Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots. And like the Autobots, libraries have more than meets the eye.

Whether you’re upgrading your skills, scouting for knowledge and information, or connecting with other heroic readers, a library card is your key to an arsenal of resources. Spark your creativity as a builder or programmer by tinkering in your library’s makerspace area; mine the library’s stacks and databases for new stories and adventures; explore the e-resources for other portals of information. And if you can’t find the item you’re looking for at the library, our staff will scour the collection within our consortium to find it.

We did mention pizza which is for those younger members of our community. Specifically, young bookworms between the ages of 5 through 15 years of age can receive a FREE 8" pizza coupon to Monical's Pizza when they sign up for a new library card or renew their existing card. The coupons expire on September 30, 2024 so hurry in. Take advantage of this opportunity - get your library card and enjoy a tasty pizza while diving into a world of stories!

For more information, call us at 815-939-1696.
