Libraries' Passport Contest Invites Readers to Travel the M.A.I.N. in 30 Days

PASSPORT TO IMAGINATION: AROUND M.A.I.N. IN 30 DAYS

Explorers, travelers and trailblazers in Long Hill Township: this September, your adventure begins at the Long Hill Township Library.

Library cardholders in the Morris Automated Information Network (M.A.I.N.) are invited to play “Passport to Imagination: Around M.A.I.N. in 30 Days.” Three winners, who complete a series of library visits, will be eligible for a Grand Prize Drawing.

If you live in Long Hill Township or a town served by a M.A.I.N. library, you could win an Apple iPad™, a Google Nexus 7™, or a Barnes and Noble Nook™. 

Here’s how to play: 

• Visit your local library in person and present a library card in good standing (or, sign up for a new library card) to receive a stamped Passport.
• Bring your library card AND passport to five more participating M.A.I.N. libraries or branches. Each library will add a stamp to your Passport.
• Once you’ve received six stamps, leave your Passport at any participating M.A.I.N. library or branch for a chance to win. 

The contest will begin on September 1, 2012. Passports will be distributed, stamped and collected until September 30, 2012. 

More information, including a full list of rules, regulations and eligibility requirements, is available at www.mainlib.org/passport. 

Through books, innovative programs, digital media, film, music, storytelling and classes, your library works to bring knowledge and culture to your fingertips. Here’s your chance to see how libraries in your surrounding communities work together towards a common goal: to send your imagination on a trip around the world (and Morris County).

This adventure takes place during National Library Card Sign-Up Month, and is made possible by participating libraries in the Morris Automated Information Network, a consortium of 36 independent libraries and branches and the Morris County Library.

Have fun & good luck!
