Libraries = Strong Communities!
- Do you have a library card? September is Library Card Sign-up Month so get one today! Check out BPL’s catalog (HERE) We lend movies, eBook’s, video games, musical instruments, 100+ cake pans, and so much more we could never list everything. Libraries are now more than just books!

- Sign up for a library card and find something wonderful at BPL! From virtual Storytime to PlayAway audiobooks, virtual DIY and Adulting classes; we assure you there is something for everyone!
Libraries Transform!
Libraries Are Wonderful!
Celebrate, this September, Library Card Sign-Up Month with
Wonder Woman!
The history behind Library Card Sign-up Month:
The campaign started in 1987 as a response to then Secretary of Education William Bennett, who stated, “Let’s have a campaign … Every child should obtain a library card and use it.”
