Reading Takes You Everywhere

(This year’s Summer Reading Program)

Participation

This year’s Summer Reading Program is called “Reading Takes You Everywhere” and will run from June 4 through August 4.  You’ll be able to enroll yourself via the library’s website (www.lapl.org/summer) or by visiting your preferred branch (if you’re reading this that is hopefully the Arroyo Seco Branch).

Keep track of your reading hours and activity involvement either by using your online summer account or your paper game board.

Prizes

There are a varied collection of prizes you can earn as you participate in the Summer Reading Program…

  • Upon enrollment you will receive a lovely tote bag.
  • Upon reaching the midpoint of the challenge you will receive the coveted color changing pencil.
  • Upon completion you receive a handy travel mug.
  • Upon completion you will also be enrolled in the library wide drawing for an adventure at OUE Skyspace. Visit their website to find out more about what this means (https://oue-skyspace.com/).
