Summer Reading Program Overview
Our Summer Reading program, offered each summer, is designed to encourage people of all ages to keep reading during summer months.
Registration opens in May, and the program runs from June 1 through July 31. Participants read books, audiobooks, comics, or graphic novels of their choosing and log their reading using the Beanstack website, http://chathamlib.beanstack.org, or the Beanstack Tracker app (apple | android). Younger children win prizes, and participants from 7th grade and up enter into weekly prize drawings.
We typically start the Summer Reading Program season with a big Kick-Off Event for families to acknowledge the beginning of a summer full of reading and fun.
