Celebrate Library Card Sign-up Month this September with Milford Public Library. The library is inviting everyone to discover the incredible resources and opportunities available at your local library by signing up for a library card.

This year, we’re thrilled to have Optimus Prime from the TRANSFORMERS as our special ambassador, highlighting that there’s more than meets the eye at Milford Public Library. Whether you’re looking to enhance your skills, find valuable information, or connect with fellow avid readers, a library card unlocks a world of possibilities.

If you sign up for a library card at the Milford Public Library during the month of September, your name will be entered into a drawing for a prize giveaway on Oct. 1.  Be sure to bring a photo ID with your correct mailing address.  It takes about five minutes to get a library card.  The first 30 days are a probationary period and you may check out four items on your new card.  Two DVDs, two books, or any combination.  TV series of seasons may not be checked out the first 30 days on your card.

Stop in the library today and get your fantastic library card.
