Want to have a say in our country’s future? One of the best ways to do that is to vote. Come to the library on September 17th to register to vote - in time for the November 5th election!  Click here for our 2024 ELECTION GUIDE.

It's Voter Registration Day all day, meaning anyone 18 and older can come in to register to vote between 10:30 am and 5:00 pm, and we will then give the applications to the town manager to process.  You will need to provide proof of residency in Massachusetts and U.S. citizenship.

Aquí se puede inscribir para votar, mañana, en la biblioteca Milne de Williamstown, entre 10.30 y 5.00 en la tarde.  Tenemos formularios en español y hablamos español tambien!  Hay que confirmar su ciudadanía para inscribirse.

*******************************

Each year in the United States, millions of eligible voters find themselves unable to vote because of easily prevented issues like missing a registration deadline, forgetting to update their registration after a name change or moving, or simply because they aren’t sure how to register. 

National Voter Registration Day was created in 2012 to help address such issues by serving as a nationwide nonpartisan rallying point to promote voter registration and help eligible voters across the country get #VoteReady to participate in our shared democracy. Since 2012, more than 5 million citizens have registered to vote on the annual holiday, including a record-breaking 1.5 million in 2020 alone.

Are you already registered?  Please encourage friends and family to register to vote here or at your town hall.
