From the Fallsburg Library
by Amanda Letohic and Kelly Wells
SOUTH FALLSBURG, September 2021 – It’s September which means back to school and Library Card Sign-Up month! Library Card Sign-Up month began 34 years ago as a national campaign to get every child to obtain a library card and to use that library card. So what can you get with your library card?
As we periodically remind you – your library card gives you access to hundreds of thousands of books, movies, magazines, audiobooks and more from the 47 Ramapo Catskill Library System member libraries. And remember – it’s not just the physical collections that you have access to – you also have access to hundreds of thousands of electronic titles 24/7 through the OverDrive and Libby apps. We also recently added access to Kanopy for Fallsburg Library card holders, where you can stream hundreds of movies and documentaries for all ages.
Getting a library card is pretty simple. If you live within the Fallsburg Central School District, just come down to the Fallsburg Library (located at 12 Railroad Plaza in South Fallsburg – directly across from the Town Hall and police station) with current photo ID and something with your physical address (lease agreement, NYSEG bill, etc.). We’ll get you set up with a library card that you can start using immediately. If you have any questions, and to check our open hours, just give us a call at 845-436-6067 or send us an email fbr@rcls.org. We hope to see you soon!
Please note that while we have mostly returned to business as usual for regular library business (checking in/out materials, using computers, faxing, etc.), face masks are still required to be worn by all individuals over the age of 2 years – regardless of vaccination status – while in the library.
