Every year, September IS "Library Card Sign-Up Month!" It is the perfect time to sign-up for your Hubbard Public Library library card as it provides access to numerous(!) resources to help with school work, and much more. And, if you already have a library card, visit the library and check-out a book (or two, or three...). And, remember, if you can read, you can do anything!! You can do anything, learn about anything, throughout your life! Celebrate life-long learning!!

Monarch butterflies are on their annual migration from the northern and central United States and southern Canada to specific overwintering grounds in central Mexico and coastal California (August through November, depending on where they start). Some are currently traveling through Hubbard! The stunning Monarch captured in the photo below was visiting the beautiful zinnias at the home of an Hubbard Public Library librarian!

Another beautiful tribute to Dolly Parton, a champion of literacy, reading and books! And, be sure to enroll in the Dolly Parton "Imagination Library." Flyers and information about who is eligible, how to enroll and more. And, in Ohio, this is free! More information at the Hubbard Public Library in the Children's Room.

We're heartbroken to share the passing of country music legend, cultural icon, and champion of literacy Dolly Parton (), at the age of 80. Her father never learned to read, so in 1995 she founded the Imagination Library in his honor, mailing free books to children every month. He later told her it was probably the most important thing she'd ever done. Thank you, Dolly. We will always love you. 🦋
