Launching April 7 to coincide with National Library Week, the Library Passport Program from the Northern Waters Library Network invites you to stop in at any Northern Waters library and pick up a passport. Make sure to bring your passport with you as you travel throughout northern Wisconsin this spring and summer and get a stamp at each library you visit. Collect 10 different stamps and you’ll be given an entry form to submit for a prize drawing! You could win one of three prize packages which include a $50 Visa gift card, travel journal and pen, DeLorme Wisconsin atlas and gazetteer, and a variety of treats and delicacies produced in Northern Wisconsin.
Passports contain a variety of “fun facts” about each library in the Northern Waters Library Network, including library and community attractions. So, if you visit the Sherman & Ruth Weiss Community Library in Hayward, make sure to check out the library’s half-mile Nature Trail with a StoryWalk® and a four-season audio guide. And make sure to stop by Shell Lake Public Library on a Friday – that’s when they have popcorn!
Passports will be available to pick up at any Northern Waters library starting April 7. The program ends September 2. To find a Northern Waters library near you, go to the website: https://northernwaters.org/passport or find more information at superiorlibrary.org.
