Summer Reading

A blue slide with a scale of sad to smiley faces and the text "Help us improve Summer Reading! We want your feedback! Fill out our survey to help us make next year better than ever by letting us know what you thought about this year!"

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us for Summer Reading 2025! If you'd like to share what you thought about Summer Reading this year, we would really appreciate hearing from you! We have an anonymous Google Forms Survey here that should take less than five minutes to fill out. Your feedback helps shape what our Summer Reading Challenge will look like in 2026 and beyond! There are also paper surveys at the circulation desk. All Summer Reading Survey responses are due by Monday, September 15.

Being displaced this summer was challenging and strange at times, but we are so grateful to all of our patrons for bringing us so much joy this summer. Thank you for stopping by to visit us at the Heritage Hotel, joining us for an event, participating in Summer Reading, and borrowing books. We loved hearing your book recommendations, just saying hi, and helping you find the perfect read.

When will winners be drawn for Summer Reading Prizes?

We will contact the winners by the phone number or email written on their winning ticket by the end of September. 

Why the delay? We are going to be very busy moving back to the library and transitioning to being fully open. For the Adult Summer Reading Program, it will also take time to integrate the paper and virtual summer reading tickets together into one drawing for each prize. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
