If you're in #Maine, SAVE THE DATE!

Free Day at #MaineStateParks (Note, not all parks - see * below) for #LibraryCard Holders on September 20

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 4, 2025

Augusta, Maine – "September is #NationalLibraryCardSignUpMonth, and thanks to a proclamation by Governor #JanetMills, it is also officially #MaineLibraryCardSignUpMonth. To mark the occasion, the #MaineStateLibrary and Maine State Parks are partnering to offer a special day of free admission to participating state parks.

"On Saturday, September 20, simply show your Maine library card at the entrance of any participating Maine state park and enjoy a day outdoors at no cost.

" 'This collaboration is a perfect way to highlight the value of libraries and the exceptional outdoor values of Maine’s State Parks,' said Andy Cutko, #DACF Bureau of Parks and Lands Director. 'Libraries open your mind to the world of literature, and on September 20, your library card is also a ticket to the outdoors.'

" 'Maine State Library is delighted to partner with Maine State Parks for Library Card Sign-Up Month,' said #LoriFisher, Maine State Librarian. 'With the fall season upon us, providing free admission to many Maine State Parks on September 20th is a natural extension of the types of services and resources that our public libraries provide regularly to their communities.'

"Visitors are encouraged to bring a favorite #book, find a shady spot, and enjoy some quiet #ReadingTime surrounded by Maine’s natural beauty. Whether it’s a novel at #CrescentBeachStatePark [my favorite beach], #poetry under a pine at #LamoineStatePark, or a field guide on a trail atop #BradburyMountainStatePark [another favorite], the day is a celebration of learning, relaxation, and connection.

"Don’t have a library card yet? Stop by your local library to sign up — it’s free, and it opens the door to countless opportunities, from books and digital resources to programs and events.

"To find your nearest library, go to www.maine.gov/msl/libs/directories/public.shtml.

"To explore Maine State Parks, including maps and locations, visit parksandlands.com.

"Free admission applies to day-use at Maine’s Maine State Parks and #HistoricSites on Saturday, September 20, from 9:00 a.m. until closing."

A two-panel Charlie Brown comic. In the first panel, three young children (Charlie Brown, Lucy, and Linus) stand outside. One of the children, Linus, approaches the other two children, holding a library card, and says: "Look! Library card! I've taken out a library card!" He stands proud, holding his library card to his chest, and continues: "I have been given my citizenship in the land of knowledge!"

Margin Call remains an absolute masterpiece of storytelling. It captures the "oh shit" moment incredibly well—in a lot of ways, it has the same feeling as incident response in software, especially when a breach has been identified.

It's on Hoopla, watch it with your #LibraryCard ❤️

"Why read at all? Why does anyone do it in the first place?"

Patrick deWitt ventures an answer in his novel The Librarianist

#reading #books #literature #PatrickDeWitt #BookCover #BookDesign #LibraryCard

"Why read at all? Why does anyone do it in the first place? Why do I? There is the element of escape, which is real enough—that’s a real-enough comfort. But also we read as a way to come to grips with the randomness of our being alive. To read a book by an observant, sympathetic mind is to see the human landscape in all its odd detail, and the reader says to him or herself, Yes, that’s how it is, only I didn’t know it to describe it. There's a fraternity achieved, then: we are not alone. Sometimes an author’s voice is familiar to us from the first page, first paragraph, even if the author lived in another country, in another century." Bob held up his stack of Russians.Patrick deWitt's The Librarianist, Bloomsbury paperback edition. The design, by Allison Saltzman, imitates a library card, using images from Shutterstock and Getty. It's yellow, with the author's name in the "Borrower's name" column, and various due dates crossed off to the left. The title is in red sans-serif at the top, and below the author's name is the text: "Man Booker Prize–shortlisted author of The Sisters Brothers".
