Lincoln School Wins Library Card Contest

Four Caldwell-West Caldwell elementary schools compete to have the most library card sign-ups.

Lincoln Elementary School students blew away the competition in the recent Caldwell and West Caldwell Library Card Sign-Up contest.

The challenge, created by the libraries to encourage students to access their local libraries, pitted the four Caldwell-West Caldwell elementary schools against each other.

Students had a little over a month to register for library cards or fill out a form indicating that they were already cardholders.
