Library Card Sign-Up Month

/in /by

This September, Joplin Public Library invites you to celebrate Library Card Sign-Up Month and discover how a single card can open the door to endless opportunities.

With a library card, you can do more than check out books. From free classes and job resources to homework help, streaming media, and fun events, today’s libraries connect communities to information, inspiration, and each other.

This year’s theme, “One Card, Endless Possibilities,” is a reminder that libraries are for everyone—no matter your age, background, or goals. Whether you’re diving into a new hobby, searching for your next great read, brushing up on tech skills, or helping your child succeed in school, it all starts with a library card.

At Joplin Public Library, you’ll find:

  • books, audiobooks, newspapers, movies, databases, a computer lab, plus dedicated Teen and Children’s areas.
  • The Makerspace, for tinkering and trying new things in the library, and the Library of Things, for non traditional items you can take home.
  • Programs and events for all ages—from storytimes and book clubs to bingo and book swap.

Getting a library card is free, easy, and empowering. For students, it’s a key to academic success. For adults, it’s a gateway to lifelong learning. For everyone, it’s a smart way to stay connected to your community.

Stop by today or visit us online at joplinpubliclibrary.org to sign up for your card today. Because with a Joplin Public Library card, the possibilities are truly endless.
