“We are thrilled to partner with so many wonderful local businesses to celebrate the power of a library card,” said Erin Baber, Marketing Manager of the Garland County Library. “There’s never been a better time to show you support the Garland County Library. Sign up for a card anytime in September to reap the benefits of extra savings throughout town and use your library card for free books, movies, games, and more all year round.” 

Participating businesses will offer a variety of discounts, including percentages off, special offers, and free admission.
