Wheels on the Bus Will Take Children to Moline & Rock Island Library Summer Programs

Moline/Rock Island, IL: A summer partnership with Metro will again allow children to travel for free to summer programs at the Moline and Rock Island Public Libraries just by showing a valid library card.

The Moline and Rock Island Public Libraries have partnered with Metro to allow children from ages 4 to 12 to use a valid library card as their fare when traveling to and from several library locations between May 30 to August 1.

Children must be accompanied by a paying adult, and will have their fares waived when traveling to and from the library branches located at 3210 41st Street, Moline; 401 19th Street, Rock Island; and 3059 30th Street, Rock Island. Riders must show a valid library card from the Moline, Rock Island, East Moline or Silvis Libraries to claim the fare waiver.

The summer reading theme for both libraries is "Every Hero Has a Story." The Rock Island program runs from May 30 to July 18 and includes a free summer kickoff carnival on May 30. The Moline program runs from June 6 to August 1.

For more information about summer programming, contact Rock Island Library at 309-732-READ or www.rockislandlibrary.org, or Moline Library at 309-524-2440 or www.molinelibrary.com.
