Just Driving Along



We have some useful information to share with you!

Our director Leah Rudolph snagged some flyers while she was renewing her driver's license and shared them with me to post. This is good for our community to be aware of.

First, did you know you can upload your emergency contact info online so law enforcement can quickly reach someone "just in case"? You can use PennDOT's Emergency Contact Information System by going to www.dmv.state.pa.us and clicking on the Emergency Contact Upload icon. Enter the information in and submit! Call 1-800-932-4600 if you have questions.

Second, have you heard of Pennsylvania's Yellow Dot Program? According to the flyer, "placing a yellow dote in your vehicle's rear window alerts first responders to check your glove compartment for vital information to ensure that you receive the critical medical attention you need" (for instance, if you are a diabetic). To request a Yellow Dot kit, visit www.YellowDot.pa.gov.

This information could save lives! Spread the word.

Oh, the Weather Outside is Sometimes Frightful

Happy New Year!

We here at the library hope you all had a wonderful holiday season with your friends and families. We sure did!

We've had some snow recently and, as a result, some early closings! Do you know how to find out if we're ope,n or closing early?

Follow us on Twitter @abingtoncomlib. We'll send tweets out so you can have up-to-the-minute info. We will also update our website, http://www.lclshome.org/abington/.

If you ever have trouble getting to us, or you can't return an item on time due to an early closing, just give us a call or come in as soon as you can. You won't be penalized for days we close due to bad weather conditions.

See you around the library!
