Love Our Library Week

February 13^th through 19^th is Love Our Library week at the Klamath County Libraries!

Now as always in our history, reading is among our greatest freedoms. We believe that librarians have a profound responsibility to give validity to that freedom to read by making it possible for the readers to choose freely from a variety of offerings.

Celebrate your freedom to read with a variety of events and giveaways at all Klamath County library branches:

• Blind Date with a Book! A variety of titles have set up accounts on the library’s dating app, Shelvr. You’ll have only their profile info to go on – we’ve hidden the author, title, and cover. Will you discover a new favorite? All libraries are participating, so the Right Book For You is out there at your favorite branch.
• Free Streaming with the Library! Get a tour of the movies, audiobooks, music and more that you can get free with your library card, plus some hands-on help setting up your account. (Do you have a smartphone or tablet? Bring it by and we’ll load it up with all our awesome library apps.) We’ll host this event three times:
  • Tuesday, February 15^th at 1 pm at the Bonanza Branch Library, 31703 Hwy 70 in Bonanza
  • Wednesday, February 16^th at 11 am at the Klamath County Library, 126 S. 3^rd St. in Klamath Falls
  • Thursday, February 17^th at 5:30 pm at the Klamath County Library
• New Library Card Prize Drawings! Sign up for a library card between February 13^th and 19^th and you’ll be entered to win a $25 gift card to either Basin Book Trader or Canvasback Books! (Did you already sign up for one of our “Digital Only” cards that we started offering in 2020? Stop by a library branch to turn it into a physical library card and you’ll get entered in the drawing, too!)
• Check Out and Win! Every library card that checks out at least one item between February 13^th and 19^th will be entered in a drawing giving away two $25 Fred Meyer gift cards!
• Find Elephant and Piggie! Mo Willems’ beloved children’s book series characters Elephant and Piggie are playing hide and seek all week. Find them and win a prize! (For kids under age 12.)
• Take Home a Love Our Library packet! We’re giving away take-home kits with crafts, books, activities and more for ages 3-12 at all library branches, while supplies last.
