Summer Reading Begins!

That moment that you've been waiting for ever since Winter Reading Club ended is finally here! Life’s a Beach is this summer's adult Summer Reading Club theme. Please join us on Saturday, June 7 as we begin signing people up. You may sign up at any time during the eight weeks of the program in person or by email (radesk@glencoepubliclibrary.org). You'll get a prize for signing up and then another one after reading six books. Remember to enter our drawings for weekly prizes. We’ll be giving out our popular free DVD rental coupons for every book read, and they will double once you’ve completed six books! Two grand prizes will be awarded at the close of the program, which is August 2nd.

Of course, we've got a great program going on for kids too! During Paws to Read, kids can keep track of how much time they read this summer and earn prizes along the way. After completing 15 hours of reading, participants earn a paperback book of their choice. New this year is Baby Summer Reading Club, in which children birth to 24 months can earn a free board book by completing fun early literacy activities designed especially for pre-readers and their caregivers. YA Reading Club is already chugging along, so we will have reading clubs for everyone this summer!
