You Can Use Your Poudre Valley Library Card for More Than Just Books
We all know and love libraries as the best spot in town to check out a new book, but what if you could do more than just read with your library card?
Turns out you can! While I know one of my favorite things to do is go check out a book, it would be nice to use that little piece of plastic in my wallet for other things.
The Poudre Valley Library District has a program called 'Flash Your Card', which allows library card holders to grab discounts at local Fort Collins eateries and stores-- discounts you may never have expected when you originally signed up!
According to the library's website, "Your library card is your ticket to opportunity. What other card in your wallet gives you free access to books, music, movies and all sorts of other resources that can change your life - or just make it more fun?"
Here is the list of businesses that the Poudre Valley Library District has partnered with where you can 'flash your card' and get great discounts:
