Jonathan Law hosted a library card drive in late September.

Fifty-five students signed up and received new cards.

Law partnered with the Milford Public Library for this drive to inform students of the benefit of having a library card. The goal is to ensure that students in the school have a card.

“When school is not in session, people will still be reading,” Law media specialist Mrs. Briggs said.

There are many benefits of having a card. A few benefits include having the ability to check out books, games, DVDs, and to use the databases the library has.

“I got one just in case I need internet access, since it’s easy for me to go to,” senior Aryn Moncrease said. “I can also get access to books, it’s very resourceful.”

The Milford Public Library and Law will also host another drive that shows all of their resources and what they have to offer again later this year.

“The library can open up an amazing world of resources and opportunities,” Law principal Mr. Thompson said. “These cards are very beneficial.”

If students cannot make it to this event, they can see Briggs and she will help get them the information needed. More information about this event is to come.
