More Summer Reading Program Information
Q: Who can join the Summer Reading Program?
A: Children entering Pre-K through 5th grade in Fall 2026 are welcome! Rising 6th graders may prefer the Teen program upstairs.
Q: How do we sign up?
A: Visit the Children’s circulation desk starting June 15. You’ll fill out a sign-up sheet and receive a gift bag and reading log.
Q: How does the reading log work?
A: Read 20 minutes a day, then color one square per day. Every 5 days (equivalent to 100 minutes) earns a raffle ticket. You do not need to come in every 5 days, just show us your log during your next visit, and we will give you the correct number of raffle tickets.
Q: Do kids have to read the books themselves?
A: No! Being read to by a parent, sibling, or using audiobooks all count toward reading time.
Welcome to the Summer Reading Program
Join us in the Children’s Library this summer for our exciting Summer Reading Program, “Plant a Seed, Read!” Just like a garden grows with care, your reading can grow all summer long. Dig into great books, explore fun programs, and watch your imagination bloom.
Pick up a reading log and track your daily reading to earn raffle tickets and prizes throughout the summer. Whether you are discovering new stories, revisiting favorite authors, or trying something completely different, every page you read helps your reading garden grow.
Stop by for hands-on events, creative activities, and plenty of opportunities to learn, play, and connect. It is the perfect way to stay curious, stay engaged, and make this a summer full of growth and fun.
In-person registration begins June 15, 2026 in the Children’s Library.
