Starts May 24! When you register for the 2013 Summer Reading Program, you will receive a book bag and a booklet, so that you can be ready to read, read, read! Each time you visit Lincoln City Libraries or any participating school media center, bring your booklet with you to have it stamped and stickered. Visit a library four times, read for a total of ten hours, and complete ten of the reading-related activities, and you will receive these rewards:
Here's a list of sites in Lancaster County where Summer Reading Program activities are being offered.
