Summer Reading

Summer reading programs are offered for all age groups.  These programs help students maintain and grow their learning and reading abilities, while earning library dollars to spend at the library store, enjoying experiments, crafts and games.  The Summer Reading Programs closes with a carnival in August. For more information check the events calendar or see the Summer Reading page.

Picture & Chapter Books

No matter the interest or reading level, we have books for these emerging readers! Both branches have picture books, leveled readers, and a nice selection of chapter books sure to inspire the love of reading. If you can’t find what you are looking for on the shelf, we can get it from another library. Don’t know what to read? Ask a librarian to help you with a few suggestions. 

Accelerated Reader BookFinder

You can check if a book has an Accelerated Reader test and see the reading level at Accelerated Reader BookFinder. AR Book Finder: https://www.arbookfind.com/UserType.aspx?RedirectURL=%2fdefault.aspx.
