Believe it or not, there are people living in Wayland who don’t have a library card.  If you’re one of them, we’d like to gently remind you of some of the benefits.  The most obvious is that it gives you access not just to the Wayland Library, but to all 43 libraries in the Minuteman Library Network.  That’s literally millions of books, magazines, CDs, DVDs, audiobooks, and more.  Reserve them online, and if they’re coming from another library, they’ll be in Wayland within the week—sometimes just days.  But your card also lets you stream a movie, do business research, find an article, check your investments, reserve a museum pass, learn a language, read (or listen to) a book, or enjoy some tunes–all from home at 3 a.m. in your bathrobe.  You’ll have to come in to get the card, but you’ll be making the most out of living in Wayland.  (Just be sure to get dressed first.)

And if, after all that, you still need an incentive to get a library card, just complete a card form (either in person or online at http://waylandlibrary.org/chance-win-kindle-fire/), bring it in, and you’ll be entered into a drawing to win a new Amazon Kindle Fire HD 16GB tablet and case.  While the opportunity to apply for a library card has no expiration, the Kindle drawing is limited to March 15 through April 15.
