Attention All Summer Readers

Keep your mind sharp and pages turning by taking part in the Mid-Continent Public Library Summer Reading Program. SRP starts May 21 and goes until July 31.  

Teens can earn library bucks, which can be used for paying your fines, paying for a lost card, purchasing flash drives and ear buds, or purchasing a backpack or book. Pre-teens can earn a book for the first two lists and a choice of a yellow tote bag, a yellow rubber duck, a yo-yo, or one of many fun books for their third list.
