Community,
September is
National Library Card Signup Month! We invite you to celebrate at the
Livingston Library by visiting us and exploring the diverse services
that your library card offers you.
All month long,
cardholders both new and existing are invited to visit the Patron
Services desk to take part in a raffle. Each time you visit the
library and check out items earns you a raffle ticket towards our
prize drawing, where one lucky winner will receive a gift card to
Anthony Franco's. The raffle will run from September 3rd through
September 30th.
Livingston Library
card holders also have access to countless exclusive services. Those
looking to catch up on news, play a crossword puzzle, or try a new
recipe will enjoy the Library’s subscription to the New York Times
including NYT Games
and Cooking.
While those looking to learn a new language will find the Library’s
subscription to Rosetta Stone
or Mango
useful. Are you looking to learn a new skill or take a course in a
particular subject? The Library also offers cardholders access to Udemy.
