Cost-Effective, Versatile Back-To-School Item: The Library Card!
Every
parent wants their child to succeed, and one of the simplest ways you
can help ensure your child’s academic success is by making a quick trip
to the library. September is Library Card Sign-up Month, a time when the
Oscar Foss Memorial Library joins with the American Library Association
and public libraries nationwide to make sure that every student has one
of the most important school supplies of all, a free library card.
Electronic
tablets and smartphones can be important learning tools for today’s
students, but the most versatile item available to them is the same one
their parents and grandparents used, the library card. “While electronic
devices offer internet access and study apps, they’re not a substitute
for the amazing amount of information that’s available at New
Hampshire’s public libraries,” said Michael York, New Hampshire state
librarian. “For students, a library card is the single most
cost-effective tool they can get to enhance their education.”
The New
Hampshire State Library promotes excellence in libraries and library
services to all New Hampshire residents, by assisting libraries and the
people of New Hampshire with rapid access to library and informational
resources through the development and coordination of a statewide
library/information system; by meeting the informational needs of New
Hampshire’s state, county and municipal governments and its libraries;
and by serving as a resource for New Hampshire. For more information,
visit www.nh.gov/nhsl.
Having a
library card from a New Hampshire library allows students access to the
2 million items in our state’s libraries’ collections, including
magazines, movies and music as well as books. If a student’s library
does not own a particular item, it can often be requested from another
library in the state.
All of our
resources and services at the Oscar Foss Memorial Library are available
for free to anyone who has a library card. Students can turn to the
library for materials, programs and services that support academic
achievement. Our library also offers access to important educational
internet resources, like e-books and online databases. For more
information on how to sign up for a library card, visit the Oscar Foss
Memorial Library in person or visit the library online at
oscarfoss.org.
