October 2020 | RDPL eNewsletter

 
October is Canadian Library Month!
 
During the month of October, libraries across Canada aim to raise awareness about the valuable role that libraries can play in your lives. This year's theme is "one card, one million possibilities," and it's so true! Your Red Deer Public Library card gives you access to so many resources, like books (of course!), movies, music, themed activity backpacks, Kits to Go, toys, digital resources, personalized reading lists (for kids and adults), and much more. So before you read on, make sure you sign yourself up for a library card (just click the banner below to fill out the online form!) and explore all that your library has to offer... for FREEEEEE!
