Summer Reading Ends This Month!
Summer is the perfect time to dive into some great books! Why not get rewarded for it with our Summer Reading Program?

Summer Reading runs through through August 15th so let's get reading!

We have reading logs on our website for both Independent Readers and Read-to-Me Readers ! We also have Summer Reading for Adults and Tweens and Teens !

Independent readers are part of the Vacation Reading Club and are asked to read 8 hours. The Read-to-Me readers are asked to listen to 20 books.


Print out the reading logs and keep track of your progress. You may either submit the form (forms can be dropped off on our curbside pickup table) or take a picture for prize redemption! Prizes may be picked up in the beginning of September.

We've launched our Summer Reading Program with some fun ScienceTeller videos! Visit our website to check them out!
