Get ready to sweeten up your September! 🍪✨

Starting next Monday, August 31st, drop by Ridgway Public Library to sign up for a free library card -- or update your current one -- and grab a delicious cookie, courtesy of our friends at Sheetz in Ridgway!

Cardholders, this means you, too! Regular patrons can renew their cards, and anyone who hasn't visited in a while can double-check their account (since cards expire after 3 years of non-use). Everyone gets a tune-up, and everyone gets a cookie!

Consider it the first of many sweet perks, including free access to thousands of books, audiobooks, streaming movies, and digital resources with your RPL card.

Cookies available while supplies last, so be sure to stop by early next week! 📚❤️

💳 MORE ABOUT SIGNING UP FOR A CARD:
◦Residents of Ridgway Township, Ridgway Borough, Spring Creek Township, and Horton Township are eligible for a free library card through the Ridgway Public Library.
◦Residents in nearby areas without a "home library" (Fox Township, Jay Township, Benezette Township, etc.) can receive a year-long library membership for $15/person or $20/family.
◦Bring your PA driver's license or your most recent utility bill to the library to confirm your address and identity.
​◦Our library staff will create a library account for you once we are able to verify your identity and address. We can also help you get started with downloading ebooks through OverDrive. Ask us if you'd like a tour, or how to locate an item.
