2025 Library Card Sign-Up Month Stickers

Library Card Sign-Up Month begins next week, and once again, OWLS and Nicolet member libraries will receive promotional stickers to help celebrate this special time of year.

OWLS and Nicolet will share the following Facebook post on September 1 at 7 PM. See the following video for a preview.

Feel free to share the post, or even the individual image(s) within the post, on your library's Facebook page.

You are also more than welcome to create your own posts using the same sample copy and images that were emailed to library directors today. However, Facebook is cracking down on duplicated content, so it's better to share the post than to create your own using the same images and copy.
