It's on, Hooksett – Tue, 16 Sep 2014

September is Library Card Sign Up Month, which is much more fun with a little friendly rivarly. That’s why the Concord Public Library is challenging its Hooksett brethren to see who can generate the most sign-ups before the month is out. (Hooksett purges its cards that haven’t been used for three years and Concord doesn’t, so anyone in Concord with a card that hasn’t been used in three years will count as a new sign-up.) The above plaque will go to the winning library. “The library that wins will keep it until next year,” said Jo Salemy, administrative specialist at the Concord Public Library. “We’ll just keep passing the plaque around, because we can’t afford trophy rings like the football people.” Concord has the early lead, but make sure to stop down if you need a card or haven’t been in a while – your friendly library’s pride depends on it. “Next year we hope to include a couple of other local libraries in the area and keep this plaque moving,” Salemy said. “Actually, we want to keep it right here. We don’t want it moving anywhere.”
