Frequently Asked Questions:

What is Summer Reading Club?
There are 2 parts: one is tracking your reading at home with the reading log to earn a prize. The other part is the program session where we Journey Through Time with crafts, games, and activities!

All totally FREE!

What can I include in my reading log?
All reading counts! Stories, information books, comics, online articles…if you read it or someone reads it to you, you can include it in your log.

Can I drop into the program?

Fill out the registration form once & then drop-in to the weeks that work for you. Paper forms available at the library too. Please fill out the form before attending.

Do I need a library card to join?

You don’t need a library card to be part of SRC. Everyone is welcome! You only need a card to take library books home.
