Library Card Drive Kicks Off on April 9th

Clarksville, TN – The Clarksville-Montgomery County Public Library is driving for more library card holders. Its campaign “Where Books Are Just The Beginning” challenges the public to sign up for a new library card or to dust off that old library card and visit the library to see what exciting services it can provide for free.

The library will kickoff this special event on Saturday, April 9th from 11:00am to 2:00pm with a showcase of library offerings along with special events including a variety of family-friendly games, and also a display of motorcycles from Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association in the parking lot. Door prize giveaways will be announced every half hour during the three-hour event.

A special giveaway to lure potential library users into the library during the month of April will feature a chance to win a free iPad, Sony eReader, iPod Shuffle, and other prizes. Any library card holder in good standing who lives within the library’s designated zip codes, or those who pay an out-of-county fee, who checks out at least one item (including computers) during the month of April, 2011, will be included in the drawing.

This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Clarksville-Montgomery County Public Library. Complete rules for the giveaway will be available on the library website,or at the circulation desk during the month of April.
