Summer Reading
BPL’s Summer Reading Challenge includes fun programs, crafts, and activities, while encouraging achievable reading goals for Youth, Teens and Adults. This year’s theme is “Adventure Awaits at Your Library”. The program runs from June 7 through August 2.
Starting May 3, create an account and register for the Summer Reading Challenge. You’ll begin logging your progress on Friday, June 7. If you have participated in our previous Reading Challenges, including Summer Reading, you probably already have a Beanstack account.
Thanks to the Friends of the Baldwin Public Library for sponsoring our Summer Reading programs.
