Library Card Park Pass Day!

National Library Week is in full swing and you have yet another opportunity to celebrate this time in the great outdoors!
 
On Saturday, April 25th the Maine State Library is partnering with Maine State Parks to offer free day-use admission to participating state parks for library card holders.
 
 
Just bring your Maine library card and enjoy a day of fresh air, scenic views, and springtime exploration—on us. Whether you pack a picnic, take a hike, or bring along a favorite book to read under the trees, it’s a perfect way to celebrate the connection between libraries and the natural world.
 
Free admission is available from 9:00AM through park closing at participating Maine State Parks and Historic Sites.
 
This special day is part of Maine Library Month and a wonderful reminder that your library card can open more than just books—it can open doors to new experiences. Learn more and view participating parks here: https://maine-msl.libguides.com/outdoors
