National Voter Registration Day on September 17 highlights the importance of voting as a civic duty. Libraries play a key role in supporting democracy by providing nonpartisan resources, information, and public spaces to help citizens become informed, registered, and ready to vote.

Twenty-three years after 9/11, we remember not only the immense loss but also the helpers, from first responders to libraries. From Gander, Canada, to archival teams preserving evidence, libraries offered crucial support and resources in the aftermath. Support your library today.

Celebrate Library Card Sign-up Month this September by discovering the vast resources and programs at your local library. With a library card, you can access books, educational tools, community programs, and more. Your library has more than meets the eye.
