Teen Summer Reading Program

Forms are now available for the Teen Summer Reading Program. The program runs from Monday, June 6 to Friday, July 22 and is for teens entering grades 6-12 next year.

Here's how it works:

Read whatever you like: books, comics, magazines, newspapers. For every 15 minutes that you read, cross off a box on your Reading Form. When you cross off the 12th box, you'll have read for 3 hours. Bring your form to the library to enter the Grand Prize Drawing, and grab another form to start all over again!

Get extra entries by writing a book review for this blog! Your review will be published here with your first name and last initial. Write your review on a review form from the library, or email it to rachel@mahometpubliclibrary.org. You can review any book, as long as it is owned by the Mahomet Public Library. Reviews should be at least 3 sentences long and should say what you did or didn't like about the book.

5 winners will receive $10 gift cards for area businesses and restaurants. Everyone who reads for at least 3 hours will also receive a participation prize.

Remember, the program doesn't start until Monday, but you can pick up an entry form whenever you visit the library.
