Fall has a sound, and your library card gets you all of it.

Freegal comes free with your NLRPLS card, and we’ve got new playlists ready for the season. When the Leaves Fall is the misty, long-drive-through-the-woods kind of autumn. Archive Autumn Family Favorites: Fall Frolic is the leaf pile and hot c***r kind. And when the porch lights go purple, Archive Halloween Family Favorites: Spooky & Scary has the rest of October covered. Stream them or download and keep them.

Find these playlists and more in the Digital Library dropdown at NLRlibrary.org, or head to lamanlibrary.freegalmusic.com. Have your library card number and PIN ready.

Don’t have a card? Stop by any of our locations and we’ll fix that.

North Little Rock Public Library System staff and partners brought home two awards from the SELA Southeastern Library Association , and we are still grinning about it.

Adam Branscum received the 2026 Hal Mendelsohn Award. It goes to a librarian who has given SELA years of dedicated, outstanding service, the kind that takes real time and effort and usually happens behind the scenes where nobody claps. We see it, Adam. Congratulations.

We also share the 2026 Outstanding Southeastern Library Program Award for Public/School Libraries with our friends at the Central Arkansas Library System , for Rock, Paper, Run 5K and our joint National Library Week Celebration. Our communications teams built that one together, with Susie Kirk, our Communications Director, and Tameka Lee, Chief Communications and Engagement Officer at CALS, leading the charge.

Laman Con is Saturday, November 14 from 10 AM-2 PM at Laman Library. Free to get in. Come see what Jennie built. NLRLibrary.org/Laman-Con

Video description:

A hand sets seven handmade signs on a library counter one at a time: Lonesome Dove Saloon, a round Mystery sign with crime scene tape and a magnifying glass, Speculative Fiction, Historical Romance, a teapot-shaped Spill the Tea Cafe, Fantasy, and an artist’s palette reading ART. On-screen text reads “new worlds are being built, one door at a time, is it on your calendar.” The camera tilts to a November calendar with “LamanCon goes up” handwritten across the first week. The video ends on the Laman Con logo, a doorway of stacked books with a star shining through, above “Unlock New Worlds, November 14, 2026, NLRLibrary.org/Laman-Con.”

Laman Library is an early voting location for the November 3 general election. Five memes, five things to know.

Early voting at Laman runs Monday, October 19 through Saturday, October 31. Hours are 8 AM-6 PM Monday through Friday and 10 AM-4 PM Saturday. Closed Sunday.

Registered Pulaski County voters can cast a ballot at any of the 12 early voting locations in the county, so pick whichever one fits your day.

October 31 is our last day as an early voting location. Countywide early voting ends Monday, November 2, when the Pulaski County Regional Building at 501 W. Markham St. in Little Rock is the only site open, closing at 5 PM.

Laman is not an Election Day polling site. On Tuesday, November 3, you vote at your assigned precinct. Look yours up at https://www.voterview.ar-nova.org/VoterView

And yes, Goats for Votes is still on at Laman on Election Day, 10 AM-12 PM. Come by with your “I Voted” sticker after you vote at your precinct.
