All Library locations will be closing early Wednesday, November 26 at 5 p.m. and will reopen Saturday, November 29.
What better way for kids and teens to spend the cold days of the season than passing the time reading books for a chance to win fabulous prizes (more books, of course)? The Library's Youth Winter Reading Challenge is currently underway - between February 1-28, 2021, readers ages 18 and younger can take part, reading and logging books. If they complete and record their reads, they're eligible to win some great bundles of bookishness. DETAILS & REGISTRATION
How it works:
• Log your reads online using Beanstack's online service or the Beanstack Tracker mobile app (Apple App Store | Google Play).
• Read one book: Get entered into a drawing for a book bundle.
• Read five books: Get a chance to win an even BIGGER book bundle (with more swag).
