How can I get my geek on?

Do you have...1 minute | 5 minutes | 1 hour | an afternoon

Do you have 1 minute?

Follow CADL's social networks, and check out Geek the Library online:

Do you have 5 minutes?

Decide what you geek, and check out geekthelibrary.org. There, you can learn more about libraries, add to the Geek Wall, or download Geek swag.

Then, tell your social networking friends what you’re passionate about and find out what they geek. Remind them how their public library provides services that support them and their community. Send a few Tweets using the #geekcadl or #geekthelibrary tags, and add a Geek the Library Twibbon to your Twitter or Facebook profile.

Do you have an hour?

Come visit your library, especially if you haven't in a while. Get to know your Librarians, renew your card if it's out-of-date, or check out a book to read or DVD to watch.

If you have internet at home, check out our Digital Downloads, Blog, and YouTube channel. Did you know libraries offered more than books?

Do you have an afternoon?

You can attend a library program, or use the library to learn more about your passions. You could also write a letter to the editor explaining what your library means to you.
