Libraries Plan Special Celebrations for Network Re-Launch Week

Fort Bend County Libraries is excited to announce the launch of a new, state-of-the-art online network, catalog, and computer/Internet access for library users starting September 2.

Library users will once again have access to computers, Internet, and printing, as well as digital collections and traditional services and materials they have come to enjoy over the years – and much more!

Special activities and giveaways celebrating the re-launch of the new network are planned at the branch libraries throughout the week, starting on September 3, culminating with a big Re-Launch Party on Saturday, September 6, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm, at George Memorial Library (1001 Golfview, Richmond).

The Re-Launch Party at George Memorial Library will feature giveaways, activities, and sweet treats for all ages.

Library visitors may also choose to get a limited-edition library card, recently designed by winners of the Library-Card Design Contest for Library Card Sign-Up Month!

“We thank you for your patience and appreciate your continued support,” said Library Director Roosevelt Weeks. “We look forward to introducing everyone to our new, enhanced system!”

The celebrations are free and open to the public. For more information, see the Fort Bend County Libraries website (www.fortbendlibraries.gov) or call the library system’s Communications Office (281-633-4734).
