Library Card Sign-Up Month 2026
September is library card sign-up month. Stop in and see that we offer much more than books.
Receive one FREE sticky note per library card with a checkout this month.
No matter what your tastes are, a library card hits all the right notes!
Check out a classic story or hit shuffle and try something new. Find harmony at your library’s book clubs, crafting classes, music classes, and more. A headphone kind of day? Checkout audiobooks and music for FREE on Libby or hoopla. Compose your future and check out ukuleles, solar cookers, telescopes, and more in the Library of Things. No matter what rhythm you find yourself in, there’s a seat in the front row at the library for you.
This September, B sharp, and sign up for a library card!
Celebrate Library Card Sign-up Month 2026 with honorary chair Laufey
Icelandic-Chinese composer, singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Laufey will serve as honorary chair of Library Card Sign-up Month!
This September, Laufey will join ALA and libraries nationwide to give everyone a front row seat to the joy of getting a library card. As honorary chair, Laufey will spotlight how, no matter what your tastes are, a library card hits all the right notes—whether you enjoy reading a classic story, vibing out in a cozy nook, learning new skills in the library’s makerspace, or checking out instruments and tools in the Library of Things.
Laufey, the youngest ever and two-time recipient of the GRAMMY® Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, has captivated a generation with virtuosic songs of love and self-discovery by manifesting her vision of jazz- and classical-infused pop music. An enthusiastic reader, she founded the Laufey Book Club in 2022 helping to foster a global community of readers. Her first children’s picture book, Mei Mei The Bunny, is a New York Times Bestseller and available now from Penguin Workshop, an imprint of Penguin Random House Children’s Books.
