Adult Summer Reading Program



Sign-ups for our adult summer reading program began this Monday, but it’s not too late to join! Open to MAIN cardholders over the age of 18 with a current library card in good standing, our program offers a gift for the first forty people to register. We also offer weekly drawings for additional prizes, as well as a final drawing for a grand prize at the end of the program. All you need to do is sign up in person at the library. Then fill out an entry form for every book that you read (audiobooks, ebooks and movies count as well) and drop it in the container in our gallery. If you write a brief review on the back of your entry form, that counts as a bonus entry. We’re hoping that you’ll join us!
