TRACK READING & ACTIVITIES!
Use a print Reading Log or our online program, Beanstack, to keep track of your READING and ACTIVITIES and EARN PRIZES along the way! Don’t forget that ebooks, audiobooks, podcasts, comics, newspapers, and magazines all count toward reading time.

Readers that complete all 8 levels will be recognized with their first name on a sign placed in the library’s yard for the entire community to see!

PICK UP A FREE BOOK!
Summer Library Challenge participants of all ages will receive a FREE BOOK at the end of the Summer Library Challenge. Books for all ages will be available at the library’s Summer Desk from August 1-15
