Show Us Your #LibraryCardSelfie!
Continuing our Library Card Sign-Up Month celebration this September, we’re asking you to share your best #LibraryCardSelfie with us! Whether you’re part of the New York Public Library or a different library system, we want to see you and your card! We’ll repost a few of our favorites to our Instagram and blog, so get creative.
Here’s how to participate:
- Get your library card here or at your local branch if you haven’t already: nypl.org/librarycard
- Take your best selfie with your library card, whether you've had it for years or it's shiny and new!
- Post your photo on your Instagram or your favorite place to share photos and make sure you tag it with #LibraryCardSelfie
- Follow @nypl on Instagram to see if we repost your photo.
That’s it! We took a group shot with our new library cards to kick things off. Check out other #LibraryCardSelfie photos for inspiration!
