Salem Public Library is once again gearing up for
another fun-filled Summer Reading Club!
This summer, participants in Pre-K and elementary grades will be
encouraged to Dig Into Reading.
Every summer the Salem Library has nearly 6,000 young
participants from babies to young adults, and it is our endeavor to reach as
many more as possible. As you know, strong
literacy skills are the key to a child’s future success.
Kids can
sign up for the Summer Reading Club online or at the Youth Services desk between
June 4th and August 2nd, 2013. Participants
earn prizes for hours spent reading or listening to stories. Prizes include a canvas book bag, a free
book, and admission to the End of Summer Reading Shin-Dig in August. In
addition, the more hours they read, the more chances they have to win bigger
prizes in one of two prize summer drawings.
Every reader who reports hours spent
reading or listening to stories during the summer will also earn a chance to
win a Kindle Fire.
Salem Library will also be presenting a wide array of
family programs including the Reptile Man, musicians, magicians, craft
programs, Lego contests, and more.
Information on all the fun happenings at the Salem
Public Library will be available on the library Website at http://www.salemlibrary.org. Beginning
June 4th, kids can register online and get started reading right
away!
We look forward to a fun-filled summer continuing to
encourage the youth of Salem and Keizer to READ, READ, READ!
Sincerely,
Jessica Marie Youth Services Senior Librarian
