Summer Reading Program is going to look a little different this year. Our programs, which will be held outside to maximize social distancing, won't begin until July. These will be optional programs, and take-home crafts will also be available for those who are not comfortable attending. It is up to you how much you would like to participate! However, we thought it would be a good idea to allow kids to pick up their reading logs early so they can get started! Reading is the backbone of this nation-wide program, and engaging your child's brain through this and other activities is an important step in preventing "summer slide" between school years.

If you haven't collected a readling log, or if you would rather participate remotely, you can register on our Virtual Summer Reading Program. Click on the image below to access the website.

This site allows for you or your child to log thier minutes read, while still collecting entries for the Grand Prize drawing and unlocking some fun games and badges. If you've already registered for the traditional reading logs, you can still use this website to track progress. We will cross-reference those that are already on our list.

We are following CDC guidance and library items returned to the book drop will be quarantined for 72 hours before being checked in.
