Vote! Vote! Vote for Books!

Hey kids: stop by the library and vote for your favorite book Tuesday, September 2 through Tuesday, November 4 (Election Day). We will announce the top three winners on Thursday, November 6. Participate and receive your choice of a bookmark or sticker. Also, you can get involved in the election process with Upstart's VoteForBooks.com program. This free, fun program gives readers a taste of our democratic process. Vote for your favorite picture and/or chapter books at www.VoteForBooks.com.

Download Station and MP3 Player Checkout

The library now has a dedicated computer for downloading MyMediaMall titles directly to your mobile devices. Sign up to use the computer at the Adult Services desk with your Cary Area library card. Additionally, the library will soon begin checking out MP3 players. If you've never owned one before and want to know what all the hype is about, or just need a player for temporary use, visit the Circulation Desk with your Cary Area library card. You can check one out for three weeks but remember to bring them back on time to avoid the late fine of $1 a day. We will be having a computer class to demonstrate how to download audio files to a M3 player.

You may also register during our regular business hours (Monday-Thursday 9:00 am to 8:30 pm and Friday and Saturday 9:00 am to 4:30 pm). The process requires two forms of ID, one with your current address, and only takes a few minutes. Call the library (847.639.4210) with any questions
