Since 1987, Library Card Sign-up Month has been held each September to coincide with the start of the school year. Throughout the month, the ALA and libraries unite together in a national effort to encourage every child to register for a library card in order to ensure they have access to the plethora of resources available. This year's "honorary chair" is DC Comics superhero Wonder Woman.
