The Timberland Regional Library will be taking their Summer Reading Program virtual for the entire summer.

According to the regional authority, the program began on June 1 and will remain virtual through August 31, 2020.

They tell KXRO that “While things may look different right now, the library is still here for you, even while our buildings are closed.”

Parents and residents can sign up online and have fun with library activities all summer as they sign up, track books you read, submit book reviews, and complete other challenges that encourage reading, learning, creativity, and curiosity:

  • read books 
  • share your drawings or pictures 
  • review a book or movie 
  • discover new songs & rhymes
  • take a nature walk 
  • plant a garden 
  • cook something new 
  • and have fun at home

The Summer Library Program web page has a link to register where residents can find challenges and earn badges and download Activity Logs. Those who participate can complete activities and head to  your local Timberland library to claim a free book once they are open again.

“Participating in the Summer Library Program is for All Ages!”
