Summer Reading Program 2026

Uncover a Story!

We are excited to use Beanstack again in 2026 for our summer reading program! You can track what you are reading by yourself (Independent and Teen) or with your child (Read to Me). We will be offering prizes and incentives all summer long!

The Summer Reading Program tracking starts June 6, 2026 and will end August 1. We will draw for prizes August 8. You do not have to be present to win. We are excited to bring lots of guests to the library, including a special Dinosaur program June 13!

Check back as we are adding new information as we get closer to the date!
