Summer Reading 2026

This year, the library is delighted to be offering Summer Reading Programs for all ages. This year's theme is Unearth A Story!

For adults, youth & teens, we will continue to use the online platform, Beanstack. You can register, log your reading or other activities, and see the rewards you've earned. Logging for the whole family is a breeze! To find out more and sign up, click here. If you used Beanstack for previous reading challenges you will only need to update your information.
