How the Passport program works

Visit libraries in the Northern Waters Library Network (NWLN) and you could win fabulous prizes! Here’s how it works:

  • Pick up a passport at a participating library or print one out using these PDF files: 2024 Passport standard document | 2024 Passport booklet layout
  • Visit an NWLN library. PLEASE NOTE: Some of our libraries are in remote rural locations. It’s always a good idea to download directions or have a map, and you may wish to call the library before your trip to verify their operating hours. 
  • Ask the library staff to stamp and date your passport.
  • You may also include up to four library visits outside of NWLN in your passport. Just fill out their information in the blank spaces on the final page of the passport.  Draw in your own stamp design if you wish.
  • Once you’ve visited ten libraries, ask a NWLN library for a prize entry slip. The library staff will mark off ten of your visits in your passport and give you an entry form.  
  • Fill out the prize entry form and return it to the library staff to enter the prize drawing. 
  • Continue visiting libraries for more chances to win! You can receive one entry for each 10 libraries you visit and mark in your passport.
  • The program begins on Monday, April 8, 2024. All prize entries must be received by August 31, 2024.

Many NWLN libraries are in rural areas that may not have good cell coverage. We encourage you to download directions to your destinations before you go! You may also want to call ahead to confirm program details and open hours, especially if it’s a long drive for you.
