From April 1-30, celebrate Connecticut libraries by participating in the Passport to Connecticut Libraries Program! It is open to adults and children, so everyone can explore the amazing diversity of our public libraries.
Begin by visiting any participating library (Canton is one!) to pick up your Passport. A staff member will stamp it and possibly give you a token gift to get you started. Take your Passport (and your library card, if you want to check out books!) with you when you visit participating libraries and collect stamps as you go. For a list of participating libraries, click here.
(Please note that not all CT libraries are participating – only the ones on the list – and not all participating libraries will have gifts.)
Visit at least 5 participating libraries, have your Passport stamped at each one, and return your Passport to any participating library by May 11, 2026 to be entered into a state-wide drawing for a chance to win a $200 Visa gift card for adults (18 and up) and for children (17 and under). There will be 6 winners (one child and one adult in each category) from a random drawing of all returned Passports with stamps from people who visit:
- At least 5 libraries
- At least 25 libraries
- The most libraries
