Summer Reading Club is an annual self-paced reading challenge for everyone!
Embark on a journey of art and creativity!
June 1– August 31
Hello, friends!
We are embarking on a journey for Summer Reading Club 2025 and you're invited! Summer Reading Club is a self-paced reading challenge for all ages. This year, we celebrate the transformative power of art that uplifts and connects us. It allows us to see the world through different lenses, fostering empathy and understanding. Register for free today!
Who can join Summer Reading Club?
Readers of all ages will use ReadSquared to log days read (app available in the Apple App store or Google Play store), badges earned, and prizes collected along the way. Complete extra activities to be entered into raffle prize drawings. If you are interested in tracking with pen and paper instead of using ReadSquared, talk to your librarian.
How do I get started?
Once you've joined ReadSquared or registered with the help of a librarian, it's time to start reading! You can read on your own, with family members, in a treehouse, on the beach, listening to an audiobook, on an ereader- it doesn't matter how! You can read however and whatever you'd like for this challenge. The library catalog is full of books, movies, ebooks, audiobooks, and more to explore together!
Earn prizes for reading for 15, 30, and 50 days! 50 days of reading completes the Summer Reading Challenge. When you get a badge with a notification stop by any library branch to pick up your prize for each milestone you've completed.
What other adventures should I expect?
