It's Summer Reading Time!

The full schedule of Summer Reading activities is now available online, summer reading logo
and print copies of the schedule can be picked up at any of the Library branches.
       There are lots of activities planned throughout the weeks from June 14th through July 29th -- magic shows, storytellers, puppets, craft programs, parties, and LOTS of encouragement to read read read.
       A very important part of Summer Reading is the Reading Buddies program. This free program is designed to help children keep up their reading skills over the summer months. Children meet with a "Buddy" twice a week for one hour at the library to be coached and encouraged in their reading.
       Adults and older children (age 11 and up) are needed to be trained as Reading Buddy Helpers. To get more information on how to sign up to be a Reading Buddy, or information on Summer Reading registration and programs, go to the Summer Reading web page, or pick up a schedule and the Reading Buddies flyer at the Library.
