Summer Reading Program 2020



Our Summer Reading Program began on Monday, June 15 and will continue through Saturday, August 28.
UPDATE:  We have extended our youth Summer Reading Program through Friday, September 4.

Children are invited to read and listen to books, earn prizes, and participate in library events this summer.  Although we can't meet in person now, we will have activities for you to explore at home in addition to online events.

This summer will be different from previous years, but we are looking forward to encouraging reading and listening to books and to hosting fun events and projects.

UPDATE

Our next Craft & Prize Pickup Day is Tuesday, September 1.  See more information and request crafts here.  


Registration:  Please register here.

Reading logs

To keep things simpler this year, we only have one reading log: counting each day that you read.

You may adapt the reading log to work for your family.  If you can't read one day and you read more than usual on another day, you can count that for the day you missed. The important thing is that your child reads or listens to books and enjoys them!

We know some avid readers want to keep track of the amount of time they read throughout the summer. We hear you!  You can record the amount of time you read each day on your reading log. We will still ask you to enter the drawing for every 10 days, but we'll have an optional place on the form for you also to tell us how much you have read.

  • You can open our reading log as a pdf and print a copy here.
  • Or you can save the image to your device.
  • If you need to pick up a reading log from the library, please let us know here or email us at youth@milanlibrary.org.  We will get in touch with you about how to pick one up from us.

There is additional information on the reading logs.  If you have any questions, please let us know here or email us at youth@milanlibrary.org.


Prize entry form

When you complete a goal, enter your virtual tickets in the prize drawing here.  In previous years, you put your tickets in the prize drawing box at the library. This year, you'll enter them virtually on the form.
