Visit Connecticut Libraries throughout the month of April for a chance to win up to a $200 VISA gift card! Nearly 140 Connecticut libraries are proud to participate in the Connecticut Library Association’s Passport to Connecticut Libraries Program. To begin, visit the Wallingford Public Library to pick up your Passport and first stamp. Then, visit other participating libraries, show your Passport and collect stamps. If you visit at least 5 participating libraries, return your Passport to us by May 11th, 2026. CLA will be giving away a total of SIX $200 gift cards, one for adults and one for children in each category.
Prize Categories
Each participant who visits at least five libraries and has the corresponding stamps (and returns their passport to a participating library by the deadline) will earn an entry into that library's drawing. The winners from each library will be sent to the Public Libraries Section. There will be a final "all libraries" drawing among the contestants who have visited at least five libraries. The prizes will be awarded to the adult and child who visited at least five libraries, winners selected via random drawing.
Each participant who visits at least twenty-five (25) libraries and has the corresponding stamps (and returns their passport to a participating library by the deadline) will earn an entry into that library's drawing. The winners from each library will be sent to the Public Libraries Section. There will be a final "all libraries" drawing among the contestants who have visited at least twenty-five (25) libraries. The prizes will be awarded to the adult and child who visited at least twenty-five (25) libraries, winners selected via random drawing.
Each library will select the adult and the child who have visited the most libraries for submission to the Public Libraries Section. There will be a final "all libraries" selection (not a drawing) among the contestants who have visited the most libraries. The prizes will be awarded to the adult and child who each visited the most libraries. In case of a tie, the winner will be selected via random drawing.
