Join Our Adult Summer Reading Challenge 2024

August is almost here which means so is our Adult Summer Reading Challenge! We had so much fun last year and we can't wait to do it again.


Ready for the fun? Complete any (or all!) of our awesome challenges for a shot at fantastic prizes from local businesses:


  • Read two books of your choice
  • Share photos of your reading adventures
  • Borrow some of our unique, nontraditional library items
  • Bring a friend to the library and share the joy


Each challenge you finish gets you an entry into our prize draw.


Whether you're 13 or 113, you can join in on the fun! Swing by the library to grab your challenge handout or download it from our website.


We can't wait to see you take on these challenges!
