Many parents and caregivers are unaware that a consistent reading routine during the summer months helps children maintain reading proficiency. This program offers resources for libraries to communicate this information to parents and caregivers, and inform them about how to participate in the library’s summer reading program.
Application opens Dec. 1 - March 15
Deadline to apply is March 15th.
