Celebrating Summer Reading Successes

The start of the school year is just around the corner, and we wanted to take a moment to say thank you and congratulations to everyone who organized, participated in, and supported the Santa Fe Public Library's summer reading program, "All Together Now!"

Thanks to the collaborative efforts of staff, the Friends of the Library, and a host of community partners, the program served nearly 1,000 children with fun reading programming over the summer, helping prevent the "summer slide" and generating tons of smiles too. Kudos to all!
