2010 Summer Reading Program

Welcome to our new Summer Reading Blog! Visit here for the latest news about what’s happening at the library this summer.

SUMMER READING IS ALL ABOUT THE FUN!
Why do libraries all across the nation sponsor reading programs in the summer? We want to share our love of reading and encourage everyone to read JUST FOR FUN!! Prizes and programs add to the excitement, and encourage kids to keep those reading skills up so they go back to school in the fall without losing ground.

SIGN-UP begins Saturday, June 5th for our 2010 Summer Reading Program, REACH FOR THE STARS…READ! Stop by the library to sign up, pick up a Reading Log, and start reading! Keep track of the minutes you read and earn cool prizes! For details, check out our FLYER and CALENDAR.
