Summer Reading Program at North Olympic Library System. Plant a seed, Read!
The Summer Reading Challenge starts now!
Your first goal? Read for 30 days to get a limited edition T-shirt or tote bag and an entry into the grand prize drawing! Track your reading between June 12–August 22. All ages can participate.
 
It all counts! Books, audiobooks, Storytime at the library, reading out loud to your grandpa or goldfish, reading the newspaper — reading for 20 minutes or 2 hours — it counts as a reading day.
