Take Advantage of Educational Benefits that a Library Card Offers

September 1, 2020

As the new academic year gets underway, support virtual and in-classroom learning by adding a library card to the school supply list. Richland Library wants to let parents, caregivers and educators know about the full benefits during Library Card Sign-Up Month, which runs throughout September.

Take advantage of all the educational resources that are available with a library card.

  • Access decodable readers and curriculum guides in our collection through the library’s Education Studio
  • Receive daily homework help from Tutor.com
  • Research and learn from different databases, like Gale in Context: Elementary, TumbleBook Library or World Almanac for Kids
  • Identify a specific school subject or area of study, so library staff can make personalized recommendations and put books on hold

In Richland County, library cards are free for residents and property owners. While there’s an annual $65 fee for most others, discounted cards are available for teachers, military members, child care providers and college students who are currently teaching or residing in Richland County.
