Reading Challenges

Looking for a fun reading challenge that lasts all year? Sign up for one of our Beanstack Reading Challenges. When you log into Beanstack, you'll see the available challenge for your age group, but it's easy to add other readers to your account if you have readers of all ages in your household. We have challenges for adults, teens, children, and even 1000 Books Before Kindergarten for babies and toddlers.

Our Summer Reading Program takes place each year in June and July. During those months, you can sign up online and enjoy free books and programs all summer. Plus, when you read, you'll have a chance to win the grand prize raffle for your age group! Just bring your reading log (print or online) to the library throughout the Summer Reading Program and earn a free book and raffle ticket with each visit!
