PPLC
A Monthly Publication of the Pinellas Public Library Cooperative
w w w . p p l c . u s
September is Librar y Card Sign-up Month!
L
ibraries are about more than books,
and this is a time when the nation’s
public libraries highlight the value of a
library card, especially here in Pinellas
County!
A Pinellas Public Library card is
your ticket to free educational resources
and activities that bring families
together. Libraries not only provide
resources to parents and children that
support early literacy and lifelong
learning, but truly transform how
families spend time together.
Card holders have free access to a
family destination that provides a
spectrum of free services including
family story times, homework help, tech
classes, and teen game nights.
Family is integral to a child’s
development, as shown by data
collected by the Harvard Family
Research Project and the Public
Library Association, a division of
the American Library Association
(ALA). The recent study highlights
the importance of libraries, with their
rich digital environment and handson resources, and skilled librarians in
helping parents to guide their children’s
learning. Public libraries are spaces, it
notes, that embrace the entire family
across every generation.
Public libraries throughout Pinellas
County are bringing families together
for both learning and quality personal
time. They are serving a crucial need
especially in areas with immigrant
populations with low-incomes. In
Pinellas County Public Library’s Family
Literacy Programs offers parents,
caregivers and children the opportunity
to hone their literacy skills in an
atmosphere that promotes togetherness.
Throughout Library Card Sign-Up
Month, your public libraries will offer
a variety of incentives to spur signups
and renewals. See inside this program
guide for more information on a variety
of fabulous programs and services at
your local library.
This year’s Library Card Sign-Up
Month Honorary Chair is Snoopy,
the world-famous beagle featured
in the Peanuts comic strip, calling
attention to the supportive role libraries
and library professionals play in the
education, academic achievement and
development of children. We want
to remind parents, caregivers, and
students that signing up for a library
card is the first step towards lifelong
learning!
