In-Person Programs – All programs take place at the library unless otherwise noted. Please check back for updates to locations for some of the larger events.
Registration
- Students are not required to attend in-person programs or participate in the grab-and-go activities. The only requirement is that students track how many hours and total books they read between July 5 and August 12.
- What counts? Books, audiobooks, and graphic novels all count towards your goal! For every hour of reading, students will receive a coin. Coins can be cashed in for prizes from the Summer Learning Marketplace.
- Grab-&-Go Activity Packs will be available starting on Monday of each week until gone. These are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. You can pick up activity packs during open hours. Supplies may be limited.
- Extra reading logs will be kept at the Summer Learning Station near the children’s room.
- The last day to turn in logs to library staff is Saturday, August 12. The top readers will be notified the following week.
- Grand prizes and certificates will be awarded on Thursday, August 24 during the Square Dance Celebration at Montour Falls Farmers Market. The party will run from 5:30pm-7pm. Come hang out with all three libraries, listen to live music, and eat yummy food!
