Sycamore Library kicks off summer reading program

The Sycamore Public Library Summer Reading Challenge runs from now until July 30.

The Summer Reading Challenge is a fun program designed to engage all age groups in exploring new ideas, books and activities. As participants read and take part in activities, they are eligible to unlock badges and prizes.

The best way to track your progress is through the Beanstack app or website. Readers who are not comfortable with technology can stop in the library for a book log. Read just two hours per week to earn a variety of prizes. The more you read, the more prizes you win.

Summer reading is not just for kids. The challenge encourages adults to take some time to enjoy a good read. Plus any reading they do with a child, counts toward their hours.

Those who have trouble setting up or accessing their account or have any other questions, should call 815-895-2500 or visit www.sycamorelibrary.org.
