Who can participate? Any patron who wants to, from babies to adults!

Two ways to participate:

1) Download the Beanstack app on your smartphone or tablet and create a free account to keep track of your minutes digitally or access the Beanstack Web Version. Note: Remember the 2026 challenge does not go live to record reading until June 8. 

2) Pick up a paper reading log at the circulation desk and write down your reading progress manually. 

Each age group has a different reading goal. Meeting that by the end of the summer makes you eligible to win cool prizes! We know you're reading during the summer anyway -- why not get rewarded for it?

 Plus, the library is hosting a variety of performers to educate and entertain our patrons. Check out the list below or visit the library's Facebook page for more information.

Thanks to all of the local businesses, organizations, and individual donors who make this annual event possible for the community! We couldn't do this without your support!
