September is Library Card Sign-up Month, a time when Grand County Library District (GCLD) joins the American Library Association (ALA) and libraries nationwide to remind everyone about the valuable resources available with a library card.

From borrowing books, ebooks, and audiobooks to getting homework help, learning new skills, or attending a book club or story time, a library card helps everyone do more of what they enjoy. All without stretching their budget.

Interested in trying a new hobby? The library can help.Thinking about starting or growing a small business? GCLD has online resources for entrepreneurs and small business owners. Whether it is crafts, research, DIY, or just for fun, your library card unlocks 1,000s of resources.

And remember, meeting rooms, study rooms, WIFI, and public computers mean working remotely can include in-person interaction.

To sign up for a library card stop by one of our five branches. There’s something for everyone at GCLD and signing up for a library card is the first step on the path to academic achievement and lifelong learning for students.

It's elemental, really—everyone should have a library card!
