The last Affordable Care Act library information session will be held at the Westminster branch of the Carroll County Public Library Sunday in advance of the March 31 deadline to enroll in health plans.

The event will be held from 1:30 to 4 p.m. at the library, located at 50 E. Main St. in Westminster.

Attendees should bring their Social Security number, birth date, employer and income information, policy numbers for any current health insurance and information about available job-related health insurance for all household members.
