Teen Summer Reading Program

The Teen Summer Reading Program is a great chance to earn prizes and join in on all the summer fun!

Teens who are going into 7th through 12th grades are welcome to participate.

Students who are going into 7th grade are also eligible to participate in the Children’s Department’s Summer Reading Program, so you’ll need to make a choice.  Find more information about the Kids Summer Reading Program here.  You may only participate in one of the programs.

Getting Started

Sign up at the Front Desk or online.  You’ll receive a Reading Sheet to keep track of all that great reading you’re doing!

You can register any time throughout the program.  You can even count any reading you’ve done since the program began!

To find out when the program starts, check out our calendar.

Prizes

Teens, complete one “Check-In” for every five hours that you read.  You may check in once per week, with a total of five check-ins during the eight week program.

For each check-in, you can pick out a free paperback book.  Or, if you don’t see one you want right away, you’ll get a coupon that you can use in coming weeks.

Those who finish the program will have a chance to win all kinds of great raffle prizes.

Book Reviews

You can also write a book review and turn it in at the library or online for a chance to win a prize in a special drawing.

Activities

There are lots of great activities for teens every summer!

Check our calendar to see what’s coming up.
