September is National Library Card Sign Up Month!


The American Library Association and libraries nationwide will promote and celebrate the value of a library card. Signing up for a library card is an important milestone in a person’s life—most especially in the life of a child. Children take pride in selecting and borrowing library materials with their very own library card. A library card opens up a world of reading and learning that will last a lifetime!

Your Hawaii State Public Library System card gives you free access to a wide array of resources, both print and electronic. Our 50 branches statewide offer books, DVDs, audiobooks, and magazines. Electronic resources—eBooks, eAudiobooks, eMagazines and eNewspapers, databases, eLearning and more—are available 24/7 at www.librarieshawaii.org.
