Libraries Are Wonderful – Celebrate National Library Card Signup Month

May 13, 2022August 24, 2020 by hapladmin

 

National Library Card Signup Month begins this week and we’re kicking it off with a month-long celebration featuring the Super Heroine. We encourage people to get their library card anytime, but it’s always more fun during National Library Card Signup Month.

Get your first library card or renew your existing one. Take some time to explore the endless opportunities available to Huntley Area Public Library Card holders.

This year, Wonder Woman is the honorary chairperson of this month-long event. As a founding member of the Justice League, Wonder Woman is known for truth, strength and compassion, much like the supportive role libraries and librarians play in transforming lives and communities through education.

During the month of September 2020 (& Beyond)*, children acquiring a new library card will have a choice of a superhero dog tag or a superhero Pez dispenser (while supplies last).

Teens and adults getting a new card will be entered into a drawing for one of two superhero gift baskets that include BluRays of DC Comics films Wonder Woman, Justice League, and Batman V. Superman along with some proper movie treats!

Just for visiting the library, you can pick up a Wonder Woman bookmark (while supplies Last)!

  • How well do you know Wonder Woman? Find out, test your knowledge and take the Wonder Woman Quiz.
  • Guess How Many WONDER-ful Shapes
  • Make your own Wonder Woman bracelets Let Miss Lian show you how with her latest Crafts at Home video.

  • Looking for some WONDER-ful reads? Check out this selection of books featuring Wonder Woman, Amazon warrior!

Also get ready for a Virtual Storytime with Wonder Woman on September 18, 2020. Engaging and magical like you’ve never seen — Join us for a Virtual Live Storytime Series + Video Call GIVEAWAY! This interactive event series begins with a Live Superhero Storytime full of hero training, engaging storytelling, and games–Plus, the character will respond to your child’s comments by name!
