Summer Reading

 

Summer Library Program 2013: DIY @ YDL

Sign-up begins on Saturday, June 1. Prize drawings on Sunday, August 18.

Youth Program: Read. Learn. Do! (Readers 12 & under)

We're not just reading - there will also be a summer's worth of fun storytimes and programs that include free crafts, games, movies, and music. Your goal is to spend 900 minutes (15 hours) in reading activities. Everything counts, including audiobooks and listening to or reading aloud to someone else. Earn a prize when you reach the 450-minute mark, and get a free book when you reach 900 minutes. Need help reaching your goal? Come to our storytimes or sign up to read with one of our teen volunteers.

Teen Program: Dream It! Make It! (Readers 13-18)

Play the new summer game developed by teen summer interns. Read and attend library programs between June 1 and August 18 to earn points toward prizes. The more activities you complete, the more points you earn!

Adult Program: DIY @ YDL (Ages 19 & up)

This summer, adults who do any eight of the following activities will receive a gift: read or listen to books or ebooks, attend DIY library programs, or complete DIY activities using library materials. You can access your reading log online beginning June 1. All completed logs received by 5pm on Sunday, August 18 will be entered into a prize drawing.
